Another way I look at it though is, if it weren't for the Feanor forging the Silmarils many great things would not have come to pass in ME. Even the three elven Rings were made to aid the elves in "enhancing" (okay, I couldn't think of another description) Middle Earth.
(I actually loved the way the Sun and Moon were created because Feanor refuse to give the jewels to the Valar!)
Perhaps Iluvatar allowed all these things for a greater purpose (as He always did).
