Hello Vader

The Hello Vader love child is even more terrible than the Sons of God/daughers of Man six-fingered Giants of Cannan. The "Blogging the Bible" guy mentions them off-hand in his latest post on the book of Numbers. I'd never heard of this super human/angel race until last week when I was watching televistion and saw a TBN pastor getting totally riled up about Genesis 6. "God didn't just send the flood because of human corruption!!! He sent it because HIS ANGELS WERE HAVIN' SEX WITH OUR WOMEN!"

Considering the source, I wrote it off as typical TBN lunacy--still interesting. But now the Bible Blogger (the subject of your last post) is talking about this Angel-Man race like it's old hat. And somehow, he doesn't strike me as coming from the TBN camp.

Anybody feel strongly one way or the other about the Giants of Cannan being half-angel half-man freaks?

I realize I've wandered far from Star Wars / Hello Kitty territory with this digression (which is something...).

Well....if you read more Christian fiction, Lowen, you'd probably run into the angel-men theory more often (Peretti, for instance). But...I don't think Reformed Christians write much fiction, so it's not as wide-spread an opinion in Presbyterian circles. That's my theory at any rate. The alternative interpretation that I've heard from Reformed theologians is that the Sons of God were descendents of Seth.

It's a 'shop job. However, this one is real.

I say we nuke them from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
