My question is to resolve a debate between myself and another Bible studier. Could any of us be unknowingly walking around with Nephilim DNA and not know it? I don’t think so, but my friend disagrees—she is actually convinced that physically attractive, tall, well-built, intelligent people could be descendants of Nephilim. She has even suggested that my soon-to-be husband and myself are probably descended from Nephilim! Needless to say, this really freaks me out! I don’t want to worry that I have Nephilim DNA, or that my future husband may (we are both tall and athletically built and he is a handsome and mechanically brilliant man). Please, any insight at all would be tremendously helpful. I love my Jesus with all my heart and can’t bear the thought of being separated from God in eternity due to genetic circumstances beyond my control.

You are a delusional fool. I hope your fiance dumps your lunatic ass, and finds some nice girl who will treat him with dignity and respect.
You, my dear, are a stupid cunt.
I love my Jesus with all my heart and can’t bear the thought of being separated from God in eternity due to genetic circumstances beyond my control.
Yet you can't see how being punished for something beyond your control... would be unjust?
Holy crap, this taking fundamentalist denial to deeper and more disturbing levels.
The Bible says the nephilim were destroyed with the Flood (unless you think Noah's wife or sister-in-laws were nephilim). The comment about nephilim in Numbers 13 was from a bunch of cowards who wanted to get out of fighting, so they reported to their commander that they saw the enemy had "nephilim".
Worse still, AQ, what if you unknowingly had animal DNA in you? You could unwittingly be the offspring of an abominable act between man and beast and so be damned and soulless before you start. Your husband too!
If I were you I'd get both of you tested straight away for signs of, ooh say, chimpanzee DNA in your genome?
Yes, all people that are attractive, tall, well-built and intelligent are descendants of Nephilim. Since you are obviously NOT intelligent, you have nothing to worry about.
Oops! Oh dear! How unfortunate for someone in your position. Yes, it does seem as though you have Nephilim DNA in you. These little quirks do have a habit of turning up in the most unwanted of places and under the most trying of circumstances. Your tallness and utter stupidity rather give it away I'm afraid. Note: Your friend's bit about intelligence is totally wrong. Never mind, try and be brave. The best advice I or anyone else can give really is that I hope you are not a member of a death cult because you need to live as long as you possibly can , making the most of loving Jesus all the while you do so. After all, an eternity of being separated from God is going to seem like a terribly long time.
Lewis has an awesome line about it in "That Hideous Strenght" it goes kinda like this:
"Merlin was a son of the devil and was a loyal king's man. Yet you are just a bunch of sons of bitches and are regicides and traitors"
Genetics are totally irrelevat to salvation. You can not get comdemned for stuff beyond your control.
"physically attractive, tall, well-built intelligent people..."
Hmmm....sounds like your sinfully huge ego is the bigger problem.
Well, you may love your jeebus, but he hates you you condemned hellbound nephilim scum.
Gawd you people are so batshit naive.
@Caretaker
They already believe we're all going to hell because of the sin of the first people even though we're separated by 400+ generations, and those who 'reject' God are going because he doesn't want to show them evidence, and homosexuals, etc., so this isn't a leap :P
Wow...just wow. Look, crazy, if something is beyond your control, then God has no right to punish you for it. If he tries to pull that crap with me, I'll own his ass for being such a know-it-all bastard.
And, besides, you can only have that DNA if God wanted you to (I guess) so there is no problem humping your brains out.
'Anonymous questioner'?
I smell a troll...
"physically attractive, tall, well-built, intelligent people"
Well, if it requires all of those traits, "intelligent" gets you off the hook.
The short answer is no. There are no such thing as Nephilim.
And why would you ever want to woship a being that would punish you for eternity in incredibly cruel manners for no fault of your own? And then you'll wonder why nonbelievers don't want to follow your religion.
Science has identified the genetic markers for many different genetic anomolies. Downs Syndrome, Tay Sachs Disease, Cystic Fibrosis, the list goes on and on. Never in the history of genetic studies has ANYone, ANYwhere, EVER found the genetic markers for being one of the "Fallen Ones". We'd do the world a favor by riding it of this stupid asses genes.
"I descended from fallen angels because I'm tall and muscular! Oh no! Please don't hate me, god!"
I have no idea what your are blathering on about, but I suspect that it would be a tad unfair for your Creator to damn you for a "genetic circumstance" that he gave you in the first place.
Not that it matters, seeing as what he doesn't exist and all, but I hope I put your mind at easy anyway.
This bullshit hits a sore spot with me! How is someone evil just because of who they're descended from?! I didn't know who my birth father was for 20 years, so for all I knew I could've been part "Nephilim".
Sorry, baby, being a Nephalim is a lifestyle choice, not a matter of genetics, so I guess you're an abomination before The Lord.
This is what happens when you read "2000 AD" and think it's contents are real kids, especially reading the story "Necrophim" too many times, it's not healthy.
Delusional? Au contraire...! [/hyper-sarcasm]
"cant bear the thought of being separated from God in eternity due to genetic circumstances beyond my control"
You worship a being who would punish you eternally for something you have no control over? Really? You love this sort of judgmental asshole with all your heart?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
