Huzzah for Monty Python! Actually I have yet to see the Meaning of Life, but we must remember to always look on the bright side of life! ::whistles::

Body and soul are opposed not complementary

I'm not Catholic so please forgive me, but somehow this strikes me as odd. Why shouldn't the body and the soul complement one another? It seems to me that the elvish relationships, while mostly a spiritual union that completes both spouses, are not without a physical aspect. Being immortal elves naturally are looking for a life partner more than anything else, but what I'm saying is that there is certainly sex involved (not in all cases, but in many).
