Are orcs immortal?? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I would have to agree that the elves captured by Melkor would have been immortal and would not have lost that trait. The orcs spawned from that union of orcs and men might have been given the same choice as Elrond and Elros. Do they wish to be mortal or immortal? Would Eru have given them the same choice as the Firstborn? Also, we don't seem to hear about Mrs. Orc. And why do orcs seem to reproduce so quickly and the elves always seem to be vastly outnumbered in battle?
