Watch out for your pastor. Some of them are scared to death of the stories of the Watchers.

I have spoken to several who visibly blanched when I raised the issue of Gen. 6.

That said, a lot of the sources this author cites are from top divinity schools. The divinity schools seemed to encourage scholarship in ancient "evidence."

I was running by some stuff (mostly CI vs ECT) with my pastor once and he was practically agreeing. I’ll never forget what he said about the whole discovery process regarding the deep knowledge of the history of scripture:

“Nobody gets out of seminary with their faith intact.”

It’s why I go to this church. We tried a few others when we moved to the bible belt. The amount of ignorant dogmatism is staggering. And if you even try to discuss this stuff with some people and pastors, they seem to want to put a pox on your house.
