Genesis 6:1-8
"2That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose."
"4There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown."
These words always stuck me as odd, or maybe I am just not thinking in the right terms. Could the giants be Neanderthals, could this be in reference about the Nephilim, but regardless it shows that for the Bible their is a difference between "holy" vs "worldly". Maybe that difference goes further then just spiritual, our bodies, our DNA is of this world, and maybe the only thing God was talking about when he said "Let Us make man in Our image" was a holy spirit. I believe only things with souls will make it to an afterlife, for good, for bad, and if Neanderthals were only born of this world then no I do not think they would make it into Heaven. I am not smart enough to argue with most in this thread, science is not my thing, shit, and I am not a model Christian either. I think God is the reason, and science can show us how he did it.
Maybe I am just over thinking everything, fuck Arock, fuck BHO, and I like guns.
Interesting ideas and scriptures. I wish the Bible had expounded more about the "giants" and the differences between the sons of God and daughters of men. Tantalizing mystery it is.
You aren't kidding!
How many gods are there?
Why didn't Jesus talk about his stepbrothers?
Were these god children full-blooded gods, or half and half like Jesus?
If they were full-blooded gods, who was the baby-mama? (sorry...god-mama)
Was god married to the god-mama, or did he have these gods out of wedlock to.
When god's son impregnated the humans did they immaculately conceive like their dad did with Mary, or was there actually penetration?
When it says that these god juniors took the human as "wives", is this a part of the Bible we should take word-for-word literally, or does this just mean they banged them?
Did god's grandchildren have superpowers like their uncle Jesus?
Did something bad happen to them to?
Why doesn't god ever talk about his other family? Is he embarrassed?
Yahweh's consort was Asherah, before she was surgicially removed from the mythos.
