I keep hearing about the 'watchers,' moreso in the last couple of days. So what's with the watchers? Had no idea until I saw this thread on FR today:

Is this what Heiser is referring to? Do you have an opinion on this? Thanks.
The Watcher's were not a part of Satan's rebellion; they created their own rebellion against God by deciding to leave their first estate which was heaven, and go to the earth to cohabitate with human women. Why doesn't the church ever address this issue? In fact, why did they try to cover it up by leaving Enoch out of the canon version of the Bible, and then manipulate the meaning "sons of God." They mistranslated Sons of God, (angels of God) creating some ridiculous theory suggesting it to mean Sons of Seth. People bought that explanation because they did not realize there was such a huge difference in changing that text around and it would keep them from the truth and allow the churches to cover it up.Enoch was "left out" because it postdates the Old Testament by centuries.
Enoch was one of the greatest Prophets of God to have ever walked the Earth. In his lifetime he wrote 365 books. We have one of them. Where are the others? Are they lost or being kept hidden? It is in Enoch where we first learn about the rebellion of the Watchers, the angels assigned to watch over and guard over the earthWe have one book by Enoch, who writes it from a point of view wherein he'll never again enjoy other human company. So, how did he get his manuscript back to the human race? Simple, the book is a fabrication. The original Enoch is mentioned as one of the sons of Cain. Instead of wondering about a distinction without a difference regarding the Sons of God, that author should be trying to find out where Cain's wife came from, and why "they" -- the churches -- have spent thousands of years trying cover it up. :')
