If they were unhorsed, or dis-embodied, their spirits would just find their way back to Mordor

"Unhorsed" is not a poetic way of saying that somebody has been killed, it means that they don't have a horse anymore. "Dismounted" means the exact same thing as "unhorsed". When you say "Jimmy was dismounted," you don't mean "Jimmy died a horrible death." You mean "Jimmy was forced off of his horse and now he has to walk if he wants to get anywhere. It's really too bad that he can't see very well and the only place he can get a new horse is so far away, that is going to be a very long walk."

Think of the one that Legolas shot down! If that creature was in any way alive, it certainly was not going to live through a fall from the sky. How did it come back to assail the fields of Pelinnor?

Who says it did? How many Nazgul did Legolas shoot down? How many Nazgul are there? How many Nazgul attacked Minas Tirith? How many extra Nazgul does that make?
(Hint: six or seven extras.)

So, you see, the Elves saw the futility of trying to kill what is unkillable, until the One Ring be destroyed.

Eowyn never killed anything in her whole life honest I swear!

I was mystified until I read this entire thread, and remembered what the RingWraiths were all about!

You forgot again, though.
