You're stumbling over the translation and don't have the discipline to investigate what the Greek is really saying.
Nope. Instead, you have conveniently omitted the "even as" part which connects verse 6 to verse 7.

You know what? I've had enough of your evasiveness. You are going on ignore. Bye.

:eek:

"Echad" in scripture is not solely connected to marriage. For example, it is used here to describe the unity among those who were building the tower of Babel. Not only unity in purpose, but also unity in language at that time.

Gen 11:6
And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one (echad), and they have all one (echad) language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.
They had one spirit in common, none the less. A wrong spirit, sure, but the same vision, same goal, same aspirations, etc. Scripture warns us of a similar result if anyone joins himself to a harlot, that you are 'joined' with her. And likewise, that the sons of God taking wives of the daughters of men, whomever they wanted, is illustrative of their having "fallen." The distinction between children of God and men doesn't necessarily differentiate between a heavenly entity and an earthly one and it is very possibly making a distinction between those that 'called on the name of the LORD' and the godless.

That's what I'm referring to. The Greek doesn't say "even as", yet it's the linchpin of your argument. Now you sense you've been cornered and bail. OK. How can I miss you if you don't go away?

All of the people you say were half-breeds died in the flood, so Mr Og can't have descended from them. Giants do exist simply because of genetics
Genesis 6:4 There 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.

Incorrect. Every angel for whom their gender is identified is male. Not all angels were identified by gender. As I said before (and you didn't learn), you're making the fallacy of unwarranted extrapolation.
I’ll stick with all that scripture gives us as truth. Compare scripture to scripture.

The problem is that you are not sticking with Scripture, but rather going beyond it with your unwarranted assumptions.

Mocking is not a good look.

So is this your way of confessing that you're a man-pleaser

Maybe Israel's god was in the bathroom using the urinal.

And it happened at noon, that Elijah mocked them and said, Call with a loud voice, for he is a god; for he is meditating, or pursuing, or on a journey; it may be he is asleep and must be awakened. 1 Kings 18:27

Just for laughs...

11 And it came to pass, when he began to reign, as soon as he sat on his throne, that he slew all the house of Baasha: he left him not one that pisseth against a wall, neither of his kinsfolks, nor of his friends.

OK it's all making sense now. Satan and his angels got kicked out of heaven for pissing against the wall of the heavenly Jerusalem instead of using the bathrooms (stocked with Angel Soft TP of course)
