Someone wanted me to put this is off topic. It comes from this thread.
I would like to point out that the verse that you partialy quoted from the Bible proves your story in no way. All the Bible says is that the Sons of God had children with the daughters of men. Who the Sons of God are, whether angels or demons, we do not know. It seems probable that they are angels due to other references in the Bible to the "Sons of God" but we do not know for sure. The Bible says nothing at all about angels being sent to guide men nor about them teaching "forbidden science". There is also no mention of anything like Grigoris (or whatever you people are talking about) in the Bible. There is no mention of any sort of imprisonment for 70 generations nor an apeal to Enoch. I would also like to know where you got your information that says one of the causes for the flood was to whipe out the Nephilim. All my Bible says about the Nephilim was that they were the sons of the "Sons of God" and the "Daughters of men" and that they were men of great renown. All that you have said MAY be true, but the Bible certainly does not support it. I will go ahead and post the entire first part of Genisis 6 for those who want to read the entire thing instead of select bits.
1 When men began to multiply on the face of the ground, and daughters were born to them, 2 the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were fair; and they took to wife such of them as they chose. 3 Then the LORD said, "My spirit shall not abide in man for ever, for he is flesh, but his days shall be a hundred and twenty years." 4 The Nephilim were on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men, and they bore children to them. These were the mighty men that were of old, the men of renown. 5 The LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. 6 And the LORD was sorry that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him to his heart. 7 So the LORD said, "I will blot out man whom I have created from the face of the ground, man and beast and creeping things and birds of the air, for I am sorry that I have made them." 8 But Noah found favor in the eyes of the LORD. 9
In closeing I would like to say that even IF one of the reasons for the flood was to wipe out the Nephilim and God decided this is what was right and what was to be, would it not be you who is commiting the atrocity by comparing this to Hitler, ethnic cleansing, and calling it an atrocity? Are you so scandalized at this "injustice" that you choose to speak for the dead Nephilim? You who did not know them or what crimes they commited? I find it amusing that wave your finger at God and call him a bad boy after he wipes out an entire race of people. Does that seem foolish to anyone else?
Maybe the real reason for these posts is not that you care about justice at all, but you just want to take the opportunity to insult God or the Bible whenever you get the chance.
