From a limited amount of checking into this, “diverse” and “strange” appear to be related terms in several instances, Biblically. Not certain that they’re exactly interchangeable, haven’t taken the time to research the original language, but if so it references all manner of forbidden sexual interaction, with animals, with one’s own sex, even with angels as in the instance of Sodom and Gomorrah, and the antediluvian situation alluded to in Genesis and expounded upon in I Enoch.

It may also have to do with producing corrupt offspring.

While the evos like to tout how the definition of species is groups that don’t interbreed, there are plenty of examples of animals which CAN interbreed but don’t. The horse and donkey to create the mule, for example. There’s also lions and tigers to produce *ligers*.

Scripture records the corruption of human DNA by breeding with *sons of God* whatever that was. There is speculation that Noah and his family who were pure in their generations, might have been the only ones who were GENETICALLY pure human beings and that’s why God sent the Flood to destroy the earth.

I think perhaps that we don’t realize the full extent of species to interbreed is that the issue is rarely forced. The animals are not likely to do it on their own, and I don’t know if scientists have pushed the issue much. At least, we haven’t heard of it although reading some of the descriptions of the creatures seen in Revelation make you wonder about all the messing around with genetics that we’re doing.

One of the main reasons that I think we are actually in the end times is that our knowledge of the world and our ability to manipulate it has far outstripped our ability to wisely use that knowledge. We know too much and it’s going to backfire on us. We can’t keep going at the rate we are without the moral character necessary to keep us from destroying ourselves. We’re messing with things beyond our ability to control them.
