The only reason the Altmeri banned Talos worship in the first place was primarily to opress the Nords and other human races and to extend show their might, to an extent. They mainly are doing it because they don't want the humans to pray to a human who became a god (and Talos IS a god, as any shrines, amulets, prophets, open-minded priests, and any common knowledge of the NINE Divines shows), as they wanted to show that they were the superior race. But their whole argument is based on the fact that they were the original rulers of Tamriel, but that's such an out-dated question, it would be like saying that the Native Americans can claim to be inherintly superior to Europeans and their decendants because they were there first. The Thalmor's whole reasoning behind thier whole war, and the subsequent religious opression of the human who became a god, is out dated and dumb. Also, the Thalmor should have been just as "superior" as the Argonians and Khajit, since they were natives of Tamriel also, but those other 2 races don't go flaunting it everywhere.
