doesn't it literally say in Silmarillion that Melkor corrupted some of the Elves who were scared of Oromë? And that's how orcs came?

A Real Goblin :
I never liked the idea of orcs being totally inhuman because it’s very obvious in the books that they are sentient and intelligent (if very savage) people.

Ryan M. :
well because Tolkein really struggled with them, right? he believed all conscious beings could be good/redeemed but orcs were seemingly an evil race

atlanteanking1 :
they could be the descendants of both the captured elves and corrupted men who were forcibly bred together and created the orc race and I come to our conclusion simply because elves and humans can have children together

Original orcs were uruk and the uruk corrupted men of the south that became orcs

I think about this a lot and wonder about the origin of their fëar. Since they reproduce like the Children of Ilúvatar, then they must be sent by Eru. This would imply he essentially assists in (1)

i dont think they go west for the same reason saruman (A MAIA) doesn't go west. there's just a point of no return and no redemption.

Adam Gunnels770 :
Wait, didn't Aulë create the dwarves? I'm not saying that Melkor created the orcs, just that I don't think Ilúvatar is the only one who could create life in this universe.

Who are the oldest orcs (once elves).
Any orcs thst managed to survive battles? Or even good orcs? That fought Melkor power over them?

Does it not straight up say in the Silmarillion that they were corrupted elves? Like isn’t that canon?

Am I having a Mandela effect moment right now bc I swear I was listening to the audiobook the other day and Gandalf says something about orcs coming from corrupted men and thinking “huh I could have sworn that was a mystery”

If orcs' souls can go to the Halls of Mandos the eternity for the folks there is probably... interesting 😳

obviously it was PJ version but in the movie saruman was digging the orcs out of the ground. gives more credibility to the theory that they were corrupted/dead elves
