I do think their activities were bhind most of it. But I also think some Nephilim survived the flood (or the fallen angels created more Nephilim, although in more secretive ways), which is where we get giants like Goliath later.

Funny how nobody’s talking about how the flood story itself is a mess. If Nephilim survived, why does Genesis 6:4 say they were “heroes of old” before the waters came? The text implies they were wiped out, but then later references to giants like Goliath pop up. Maybe the “sons of God” weren’t angels at all—could be a metaphor for powerful human lineages? Or maybe the flood narrative was edited to erase inconvenient truths. The idea that fallen angels kept breeding Nephilim in secret feels like a patchwork fix for a story that doesn’t add up. Follow the money: who benefits from keeping this ambiguity?
