Remember, it was an essential ingredient in Tolkien's conception that Men had 'fallen', whereas Elves were unfallen.

But does this include the Noldor? Weren't they essentially
"fallen" by taking the Oath of Feanor and refusing to
renounce it before leaving Aman? Btw an interesting
analogy would make Melkor=the Garden of Eden snake
and Feanor=both Adam and Eve (which would no doubt have pleased his
humongous ego.
