But, other good Bible teachers have brought back the basic teachings of the Bible on these angels and what happened before — and the *real reason* for the world-wide flood (as told to us in Genesis).

Indeed, my brother. People today too often buy into whatever the "mainstream" view is, ridicule anyone outside that viewpoint, and miss the obvious. It only takes a little Bible study to strongly support the viewpoint that God sent the flood not only because of widespread sin, but in large part to purge the human gene pool of what had become widespread angelic corruption. Why Noah? Because he was "perfect in his generations." IOW, his bloodline was clean and 100% human.

So many people totally misconstrue the nature of angels. Don't you cringe when someone implies that people die and go to heaven and become angels? That makes as much biblical sense as going to heaven and becoming a horse.
