........and Spanish is similar to Japanese, Arabic, Chinese etc etc. There are probably lots of languages that are not similar to Spanish.
The example with gients is that i seems to occur in many other religons to be a coincedence....maybe it was borrowed maybe it wasnt.

Or maybe, long ago, people all around the world found large bones buried in the ground. They did not know they found dinosaur bone. To them, these bones had to be something they could understand. It would be simple for them to imagine giants.

Or maybe their were really giants. Remember people did actually find out that dwarfish people existed.

That is possible, but because we have never found any remains, it is unlikely. We have found dinosaur bones and we know that the ancients also found these bones.
Why would it unlikely...if there are humans that were smaller than average why cant there be the opposite? The ancients may have found the bones but they can probably tell the difference between a T-Rex bone and a human bone, they werent imbeciles. 😬

Many churches teach that there were giants. The quoted scriptures were something like the Sons of God taking the daughters of men. Other churches teach that this means that believers were marrying non believes.Some churches teach that because of these angels of god marrying into the human lineage that the gene pool was dirtied and this is why god sent the flood and why god chose Noah to be saved, stating "He was innocent or clean in his generations," meaning his gene pool was clean.
Can't watch the video, sorry, no sound card.
The things is, it's rather unclear what the word 'Nephilim'refers to. It means something like Fallen Ones. It's often translated as giants, but it doesn't say that.
I did a lot of reserach in the matter. I do believ giants existed... in the sense that there prolly was a group of people taller than the rest.... about two metres in height. There skeletal evidence to support that.
With an average length of 1,50-1,60... trust me, that was BIG. But not biologically impossbly big.

They didn't know what a T-Rex was. Most likely it was mammoth bones that were thought to be giants.

Oh crap I did not see this post. I can't believe someone beat me to it LOL. But to bring reference to that:
Genesis 6:1-4 goes as follows:
When men began to multiply on earth and daughters were born to them, the sons of heaven saw how beautiful the daughters of man were, and so they took for their wives as many of them as they chose. Then the LORD said: “My spirit shall not remain in man forever, since he is but flesh. His days shall comprise one hundred and twenty years.” At that time the Nephilim appeared on earth (as well as later), after the sons of heaven had intercourse with the daughters of man, who bore them sons. They were heroes of old, men of renown.
So I fail to see what is so surprising if you are Christian or anything. The Bible says "the sons of heaven" which are not men because it says "the daughters of men." If the "sons of heaven" were men it would just say "men."
Anyway, someone else will pick this up, I'm lazy 😆

It depends on your use of "giant".
They have found now extinct primates that were 9-10 feet tall, I think the term "giant" even found its way into the animal's taxonomy.
However, there are many reasons why a primate any larger than that wouldn't survive. For instance, large mammals require HUGE food sources, also, the primate anatomy has physical limits, and over a certain height, the structure of the skeleton and muscles becomes precarious.
It is possible there may be a 15-20 foot skeleton of a genetic abnormality of one of these huge primates, but we have not found it, and it would be so rare that it is unlikely we ever would.
It depends on the T-Rex bone. I'm sure their femur would look similar to ours, or their vertebrate.

There might have been huge people from, lets say Scandinavia.........haha, .... that is not the world........ya say???? LOl
Okay, let's say Scandinavia took on lesser people like Italy..HEY....WE'RE NOT LESSOR...yeah, shor people, or Japan............ 🤣
Sorry, got to go away now.......hahaha........We bite angles........
Oh, and don't give me that shit of them being less, just couse someone is bigger.......all races have strategic references........small is gooooood......yeah.....

That is like asking does Santa Clause have sex. Santa Clause is fictional, so both yes and no would be correct. It all depends on rather you are talking about reality or not.

Anyway, angels are usually referred to as the "sons of God," so I would assume that they are male in the same way that God is--not sexually, but that is how they reveal themselves.

Yes, angels are male.
