But to add my two cents: those select few among the Imperials who actually take the Talos ban seriously (that priestess or whatever in Solitude who you can ask about the Talos shrine) like to say that Talos was great man, but that doesn't make him a god. Whereas the truth is precisely the opposite: he wasn't a great man...at least, not necessarily; his moral character is, like nearly everything in TES, highly debatable...but he is a Divine, apparently because magic phlebotinum or something. I agree, he wasn't really worthy to become a divine, but the evidence for his ascention is strong. As for the original question, no the Thalmor are not right, neither morally or factually.They are clearly deluded.
