It's pretty easy to understand. Elves are of greater power, wisdom, etc. If I were him I would defenintly pick elves over men. He them probably thought that when he changed them that they would still have the same power. Though I don't understand that if Orcs are of elven decent then why are most very stupid and obstinent. Elves are rarely stupid but some can be obstinant. I just don't get it.

It can be hard to understand at times, but it is somewhat simple also. Orcs that we see in the movies like Lord of the Rings, were never elves themselves, they are of that descent from long ago. When the first elves centuries ago were tortured and manipulated, they didn't instantly look like orcs today, it was over time, that they transformed, by "reproducing" through time they lost the appearance of what they once were, and their appearance was not the only thing to slip away from them, their wisdom, and patience as well was lost, that is why orcs are the way they are now.

Your welcome, Beleg. I hope I do not sound like a "know-it-all." I just love Tolkien's history of Middle Earth, it is so interesting and new to me.

why do u all judge orcs so harshly? there is a reason they do wat they do. it's in their nature. they are not evil (because there is no evil, only reason.) just doing wat is inprinted in their brains. u cannot judge one on instinct (and personallity. i admit they're not very nice..... but then again neither are humans so *shrug*) as it is nature and u can't change it. sorry for sounding preachy but i'm a firm beleiver in equality(and anti-war like.... unless they atack first.).
