What? You read the book, you tell me. Just the fact that they have immortality would be enough for most.

I do disagree here also. I don't think the fact that Elves are immortal makes them "super-human" it simply makes them Elves, its makes them different. Myself, I would not want to be immortal so I definetly don't think the fact that they are immortal makes them better, like I said, it just makes them Elves. Its supernatural to us because its just different. In its own way dying of old age is "super-natural" to the Elves.
I agree with Dwarin, its always seemed weird to me that Elves are seen as god-like simply because they are immortal and more in-toned with nature. I would not say Dwarves were god-like because they have a longer lifepsan than men and are more in-toned with mining and building. Its just the different natures of each race.
