No, that is just what I mean. They are not different species, as far as I know. I would like to see some definitive quotes on this if anyone has some.

Men and Elves are dissimilar only in that they have different "gifts," so to speak. Elves have, for example, their lifespan while Men have the gift of death. My point is that while one of Aragorn's ancestors may have been an Elf, he was 100% man regardless.
