Christianity / faith and Tom Bombadil

Matthew 21, approx. Jesus and co see a fig tree, Jesus is hungry, there are no figs. Jesus tells tree it won't bear fruit again, tree dies. Jesus' buddies amazed, Jesus tells them if you have enough faith you can literally move a mountain.


no disagreements, but a question: Say your desire is to hang out with the tom bombadil character from the Tolkien novel, lord of the rings, he doesn't actually get shown in the movie but he is a mysterious character who is not affected by saurons evil ring of power. What is his secret? Say your desire was to go skateboarding one day with tom bombadil, THE tom bombadil, and you had enough faith for this seemingly impossible miracle to occur, how would it actually manifest? Who can conjure up the real tom bombadil? Not an actor representing tom bombadil, but the actual real tom bombadil.


also, why didn't I bring my skateboard to the beach today? Have the snorkelling gear but no skateboard. No tom bombadil either, you could probably learn a lot from tom bombadil.


 actually, what if by some feat of great faith you did manage to summon up the REAL tom bombadil and then he got raped right in front of you, the way Spielberg raped Harrison Ford while George Lucas was egging him on, that would be horrible, be careful what you wish for.... The moral of the story is to bring your skateboard to the beach when snorkelling and ride your board between swims, don't wish for crazy things because someone is going to get raped
