Article doesn't, in the first paragraph, specifically address and expand upon the bombshell cited in the title:
FAIL!
Any legitimate find would have been described in loving detail in the first paragraph - for example, thusly:
"Three perfectly preserved male femurs having lengths which, if extrapolated to the sizes of the full-size individuals, indicate heights of 2.13 meters (+/- 0.05 m), 2.21 meters (+/- 0.06 m), and 2.26 meters (+/- 0.06 m), respectively. Additionally, a female femur having a length which, if extrapolated, indicate a height of 2.01 meters (+/- 0.04 m). C-14 dating indicates an age of 10,800 years. The ratio of various calcium isotopes suggest that the individuals, in life, were indigenous to the Eastern Mediterranean region. Additional bone fragments - including an intact cranium - are consistent with these body sizes. All of the specimens have been reliably classified as belonging to the subspecies Homo sapiens sapiens."
"Just the facts, Ma'am!"
After stating the scientific facts, the article could have then gone on with the blah-blah and fluff.
Of course, such articles never do that!

Human skeletons?!
No, I didn't think so!

Interesting post..in light of those thoughts
So did the demonic fallen bring technology to the earth in an attempt to emulate Edens ability to supply the body on thought of need? Thus enslaving man
and setting the earth on a destructive path against God..so instead of it being progress its a lack of faith..?
He comes to destroy the destroyers of the earth..
Yup

“When those newspapers had more space than stories, they often made up fantastic tales to fill the empty spots.”
Would had to be a Nationwide conspiracy to print stuff like that then.
Did He mention them at all?!
Because what you've written suggests that Scripture records Jesus of at least mentioning them.
Chapter and verse?

No I am saying that the only thing the church chose for people to be aware of is what they deemed necessary. I believe that God had much more to say than what they espoused as the only holy scripture.
“No I am saying that the only thing the church chose for people to be aware of is what they deemed necessary. I believe that God had much more to say than what they espoused as the only holy scripture.”
So again, you believe the Holy Spirit incapable of preserving God’s written word to believers.
Wow! That's pretty powerful stuff!
Did these "angelic beings" who mated with human women have 23 chromosome pairs, just like humans? I suppose they must have, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to successfully impregnate human females.
But since when do "angelic beings" have physical bodies - replete with sexual organs and gametes?!

Gee, now you've gone and spoiled all our fun!
You meddlesome kids, with your "Occam's Razor" and such!

How else to explain the FACT that there are so many different versions of the Bible - even containing different numbers of books?

Probably was...................
Just an advertisement for a movie/book
Can’t they just go and buy some advertising space instead of . . .
“A ‘giant’ in Biblical times could have been someone 6 feet tall...............”
If you read the second to last article, they describe a giant name Og bed.
“The Biblical measurement of an amah, literally the length of a forearm, is 9.2 inches, which would mean that Og’s bed was over 14 feet long and over six feet wide.”
Very big bed.
I remember reading where they found remains of Giants in China.
Interesting thought.
Yet none but Enoch are cited as authoritative prophecy by NT scripture.
👍
Very true!
“Because what you’ve written suggests that Scripture records Jesus of at least mentioning them.”
No it doesn’t and no he didn’t.
No it doesn’t and no he didn’t.
You originally wrote: That sounds like spiritual entities but we really don’t know what they are. Jesus did not elaborate.
To say, "He did not elaborate" implies that he did at least mention the topic, but did not go into more detail.

And before the OT books were written down it had been an oral tradition, which was just as painstaking. Everyone new the stories. If the storyteller missed one word the next storyteller would continue it.
And I think the various ages are close to the actual, but rather than being “rounded” I have read where the number used denotes a meaning. Some numbers are “perfect” like 7, or perhaps the 120 is to evoke the meaning of the 12 tribes of Israel.
An aside - while 7 is perfect, I have read where the use of 666 as the mark of the beast is that it is close to perfect (6.66) and tries to come across as being 7. (Many will be fooled by Satan when the anti-christ comes).
A second aside. The gay pride flag tries to come across as a rainbow (God’s symbol) but it is only 6 colors, it is missing indigo!
That’s a Nephilim, baby!
