Yeah, that's it! I met up with a guy in a Christian chat room on WBS
(pre-GO Network days, back when it didn't suck as much), and he used the
same word. He was a fan of C. S. Lewis as well as Tolkien. (Some consider
Tolkien a Christian fictionalist -- I mean, yes he was a devout Catholic,
but I never imagined his literature as being religious in and of itself..)
