Interesting: why we have a short span of life

<< < (4/11) > >>

musicman:
I'm pretty sure that most of us agree that there were societies of men (and women) alive prior to Adam.  Furthur, most should realize that these people did not live hundreds of years (Maybe 30 or 40 would be closer).  And of course the seeds of Adam mixed with them, shortening the lives of their children.  It seems that the last of the long livers were destroyed during the locolized flood. 

Gina:
Whoa, Musicman. 

Gen. 6:4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bore children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.

Archeologists found remains of "men of old" (what we call cavemen?) and they were huge -- like, 8-9 feet tall.  And you said that they lived no more than 40 years and that seems to fit perfectly with what you said about them mixing with Adam's seed.    It's a known fact that the larger a person is the shorter their life will be ... on average. 

I'll have to give it more study though, but very cool.  Thank you.

musicman:
No Gina, that was Shaq that they found.  They couldn't find him on the basketball court last year (at least around the hoop because he was huffing it down the court while the game went on).  Anyway, the Archeologists decided that he should be doing pregame commentary for NBA games now and so turned over his fossils.

Gina:
Think we could stay on topic?

indianabob:
Gina,
Is the Bible correct to say that only eight persons survived the "flood"?
Does this account for the remaining Giants if any?
Or were they protected somewhere else and came out of hiding to fight David?
