Actually, there are plenty of good theologians who believe the giants were not entirely wiped out by the Flood.

Goliath and his brothers being an example of such.

"there are plenty of good theologians who believe the giants were not entirely wiped out by the Flood."

Gen 7:20-23, “Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered. And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of beast, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and every man: All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry land, died.

And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark.”

All and every means all and every. Only Noah and his family lived through the flood. If a "good theologian" wants to argue with the scriptures, I guess that is his or her prerogative but not biblical.

1Sa 22:10, "....and gave him the sword of Goliath the Philistine". Goliath was a Philistine, a warlike people who migrated from Crete and the Aegean region.
