Tolkien's "land of Fairy" transcends the pagan vs christian dichotomy. It reaches far beyond, it springs from the cultural unconscious of Hyperborean people. We naturally understand his writings, it's almost instinctual. And this is his genius. CS Lewis doesn't come close because he was consciously trying to mimic the christian stories. Tolkien simply speaks of the eternal.
