...."wouldn’t be having some of the problems they have today."...

If you look at the locations of the areas that still had Nephilim when Joshua stopped fighting, that is exactly where we have trouble today. Gaza is one of them.I believe Bashan was located in the Golan Heights.

The reason Christians don't understand a God that would require the death of everything that breathes doesn't understand what Nephilim were and why the Flood was called for.

If you look up the term "Utterly destroy" you will see that they were to be killed, stacked in a pile and set fire, and then be covered in rocks. Villages that weren't "utterly destroyed" just had soldier aged men destroyed.

I don’t think God ordered the complete destruction of all the groups in the land of Canaan, but He did order the complete destruction of some of them. I believe they were Nephilim. When the spies returned from spying on the land, they said there were giants (Nephilim) in the land. Indeed there were. A major gnome problem.
Many say there was great sin in the ante diluvian world. Indeed there was, but if sin was the only problem, maybe God should destroy the world, every so often. No, it was FAR FAR worse than we can imagine. I believe the Nephilim were living, breathing abominations, who never should existed in the first place, and the Flood was brought on the earth, to kill off the Nephilim. 😁
