Cleric Archers?

[Immort]

Just to back up whats already been said, yes clerics make excellent archers. With the correct feats and spells, (and frankly, if you aren't using feats and/or spells/special abilities then everything comes down to straight bab anyway) the cleric will surpass any other class in the game. It need not even be an elven cleric, any god with bow as their primary weapon and a war domain will work nicely.

Course Jeremy's cleric just happens to worship a god who works a little more than nicely. In the end, if you want the highest consistent damage, the cleric archer rules.

Yeah, elves are just better at that, since they don't need war domain to gain weapon proficiency and the elf domain provides both point blank shot and cat's grace, which are essential for an archer cleric!

Blast spells tend to be more fun than healing.

Of course, you may be the exception that proves the rule.

maybe if I was one of those evangelical clerics that slap people on the forehead.

You forgot the pre-requisit that they have to have something of gold worn on their person.
