Do they belive that the whole race was descended from the gods or something? In that case why do they purge each other, is it bcause they think some elves aren't worthy to rejoin their ancestors or something? [Yes that is exactly it, they believe they are the descendants of the gods and that when Lorkhan created Mundus (the mortal realm) he tricked and robbed those gods into surrendering their immortality, thus robbing the Altmer of immortality. This is why they say a man(Talos) cannot become a god because only elves can be gods.]
