Theorically speaking we can live hundreths of years, the reason we do not is because of many factors.
Solar radiation is only one factor, then there is nutrition, DNA degenaration, pollution, and many other things that adversey affects us.

The angels can become tangible, and even eat in the Bible. And it is possible that in a functional material form angels can reproduce as well.

Jesus said they neither marry nor are they given in marriage. This means they do not marry, it says nothing about their capabilities.

The most ancient legends speak of demonic copulation and giant offspring. Legends among every culture has the same. This is where many stories about the "gods" originated.

Those angels who left their first estate were bound in chains of darkness.

It's a simple story, no more fantastic than a man rising from the dead, ascending to heaven, and returning thousands of years later.

You can't prove any of your above statement. I suppose you had a talk with Satan about this.

The Truth will make us free, not assumption, and the lack of knowledge is what will destroy us.

According to Jason, all things are assumable, and the facts are not to be considered. This is the dangerous ploy of an Occult, where people die in lies and ignorance.

I don't believe this is a "Slippery Slope"; I believe searching for the facts should be a Christian's primary objective.

By agreeing and not questioning our Religious ideals, the foundation of lies and deceit will prevail, and fear will be used to suppress the ignorant or those who don't agree with us.

I don't know-- I'm just glad that most of the women of my day don't look like they are first cousins to an ape!
Randy, what about the other numerical errors in Scripture? They are not only there, they are real. To say they are not there, only reinforces our attempt to cover the Truth.

This is not what the World expects from people who claim, "We love the Truth".

I am not Randy and I don't have answers for the questions that challenge the idea that the Bible is infallible and inerrant.

My faith in the redemptive work of Jesus Christ supercedes my questions.

The Bible is only inerrant in it's original manuscripts.

The Bible contains a hidden and supernatural history of man...and we are it's guardians.

Anthropologists have found mysterious artifacts and skeletons that fit no scientific model. These are locked away in storage under lock and key. They can't explain them. Even ancient ruins have unexplainable details. Man's true history is far more mysterious than science is willing to admit.

I believe the Bible contains more truth than the scientific models.

Re: Did Men live 900 years?

Finding a wife for Cain

1/1/1989
by Dr. Hugh Ross

The question concerning possible candidates for marriage to Cain comes near the top of the list of most frequently ask questions at our outreach events. It stems from the apparent problem of the first couple's having only three sons; Cain, Abel, and Seth. Cain, the firstborn, after murdering Abel was banished to a land towards the east called Nod. If we are all descended from Adam and Eve, where could Cain have found a wife?

The problem is actually more serious yet. According to Genesis 4, Cain not only found a wife, but by the time of the birth of his son Enoch, he found enough people to help him build and populate a city. Furthermore, Adam and Eve did not give birth to Seth until after Cain murdered Abel and was banished to Nod.
