Biblical Characters

The Resume

    Offspring of fallen angels and human women as described in Genesis 6
    Supposedly of gigantic size
    Also mentioned in the Book of Numbers and the Epistle of Jude
    Also described in non-biblical sources such as Book of Enoch and some versions of the Talmud

Why they might be annoying:

    What are angels doing messing around with human women?
    According to Genesis they were one of the reasons God sent the flood.
    Goliath and Og of Bashan may have been Nephilim.
    They've inspired some very bad scifi movies and books.

Why they might not be annoying:

    Their story may have just been a cautionary tale about mixing with outsiders.
    Their story keeps some very strange conspiracy theorists busy.
    It's not their fault that their parents couldn't keep it in their pants.
