Really, Phantom, I would expect better reasoning from you. What did he do not to deserve it? The rain falls on both the just and the unjust, and Elros was far from unjust. Long life he gets from his geniology. Can you help that, or even influence it one way or another? Riches? He was given exceptional favore from the Valar. What you are doing is like trying to deny people their birthday presents just because "they don't deserve them!"

Boromir, you too?

Shirked his half-elven heritage, you say? No, my good friend, he was simpely embracing his full manish side, since he couldn't be both. Not to mention, according to the Valar themselves, he made the better choice (as in "even the Valar shall grow weary and envy the Gift of Men.)

That's like you saying, "Here, you can have chocolate or vinilla. Ohhhh, you chose vinilla you coward!" No, I just happen to like choclate better, and didn't you say I could choose anyway?!

Ha! Your scandolous and inflamatory comments on Earendil's descendents I will leave unanswered, for the simple reason they have no merit, and therefore deserve no answer.
