Has anyone else read Genesis 6 and Genesis 19 and noticed the mention of these interesting beings?

About the giants (also known as the Nephilim) of Gen 6.

Sub-questions: Were they supposed to be the wicked offspring - the result of the union between the 'daughters or men' and the 'sons of God' (also known as the 'sons of the nobles')?

If so, doesn't it mean that the 'sons of God' had unique genes? Perhaps they were giants themselves, or, as their titles suggest - perhaps they were like gods?

Now, about the angels...Gen 19 explicitly tells us of a pair of angels who interacted physically with the man named Lot. They obviously took on physical, human form. They ate bread. A gang of rowdy gay men (outside Lot's house) also saw them.

Has anybody else noticed these 'physical angels'?

Note: I'm not here for a scientific argument. All who have an interest in the Bible as well as the paranormal are welcome. Sources - KJV and Judaica Press Complete Tanach.

I mean we all know Notre Dame is a paper lion. . . living off the history of the program. . . FROM 1940!!!! They DO NOT deserve a BCS bowl bid and have been killed by the only two decent teams they've played all year. . . . get ready for the trifecta Irish fans as LSU will make it 3 blowouts to decent teams this year. . . My prediction. . . . LSU 47. . . Notre Dame 24.

My non-Pagan friend is making me a Pentacle out of iron. I can't remember if an iron pentacle is bad or not. I know that in the old days the witch hunters would put iron horseshoes on their doors because they thought that iron would ward of evil. And I also remember that some trads put iron nails at the base of a stang to keep the energies inside the tool.

This question is for PAGANS ONLY. Any Christian or hateful propaganda or bible scriptures will be reported.

In my opinion, the blacks are lazy and wont help them selves. Was it a mistake to get rid of white rule in South africa, as the system that replaced it is just as corrupt and racist, Crime has doubled and the police turn a blind eye to most crime that is committed against a white, The police force is corrupt to, incapable of dealing with the amount of crime commited by blacks, aids is rife because the blacks have not come out of the trees yet. Also the ANC are a communist type party ,

My husband was pulled over last night by the state police and treated like a felon and they searched our vehicle just because they were looking for the same type of vehicle b/c of something to do with narcotics. They made him step out of the vehicle and walk backwards to them, empty his pockets, get patted down, tore our vehicle apart searching for drugs, even looked underneath it, then said sorry apparently you're not the person we're looking for, have a nice night. I guess they showed him a warrant type paper saying they could search any vehicle that fit our type vehicle? Are they allowed to do that? I thought they had to have a license plate number or at least suspect description. I didnt think they could just search any vehicle that looks like the one they're looking for. We have a Jeep and there's tons of them around here. If that would have been me and our daughter instead, I would have been scared to death.

You'll see some of the faithful (Christian, Muslim or Jewish) get foul too. More often than not, I will see some of these faithful come to their sences and show compassion and kindness to even the most blasphemous people. Does that mean that athiests are not capable of compassion to the faithful?

My daughter is 4 years old and in daycare. We receive glowing reviews of her from them in all areas except for one - she 'over utilizes her leadership skills.' We've seen this in situations where other kids are present such as birthday parties and such. She tries to direct activities and hand out assignments to others...including her teachers and peers. We are happy that she is displaying leadership skills at such a young age and we don't want to stomp these out. We would like her to understand when it is appropriate to direct activities and when she should let the teachers do their jobs. She needs to understand when to listen and follow directions. For example, her teacher was reading a book to the class. Our daughter grabbed another book and sat down a few feet away and started getting kids to create a circle around her and she 'read' to them. She also likes to be the one in the class that hands out materials. How can we steer her in the right way without hurting her ego?

My friend's kid has a homework assignment, and the question is:

Explain the following quote (from Uncle Tom's Cabin):" The worst use you can put a man is to hang him. No; there is another use that a man can be put to the is WORSE!"

I have never read the book, but I am assuming by looking at the question that the explanation is that enslaving a person is worse than hanging them. I'm not sure how detailed an answer a 5th grade teacher is looking for though.
