It says they were the ansestors  of the Ehlnofey who were Aedra which are divines which means they were related to Gods. You think the first dominion was the third dominion don't you? The two dominions are different things, they deserved nothing of the kind unless you hated elves for being elves. Ehlnofey isn't a place, they are people scattered across the world. That isn't something to believe, it is a fact that they live longer and have better magic than any race. And the Imperials religion has elven gods in it, same with the nord religion, the breton religion. Even the Khajiit religion mentioned Bosmer coming from the gods themselves. and it isn't just Altmer beliefs, every elf believes this. Orcs believe it as well, are they snobby and arrogant and only want to be superior? Just because it doesn't agree with your belief doesn't make it fact based false. It means that they aren't the only ones, nor are Mer the only ones.

Every Race has the same origin.

Neither Mer nor Altmer are closer to the divine than say...

Khajiit or Redguard.

I no the difference, first Dominion had the white mans burden schtick and the other one had  kill all humans.

The first sure was better...

No.

Of course, Ehlnofey isn't a place.

What I meant about belief is the reason for why they live longer and have "better" magic.

Which isn't for being closer to the divine because they aren't.

It is because they are Elves.

They can believe that all they want, everyone comes from the Ehlnofey all the same.

Mer aren't doubly Elhnofey or anything like that.

I do know all elves believe that.

And just because Mer believe it, doesn't make it fact based either.

Your point was?
