from book of Genesis...?

in the book of Genesis it states that the Sons of GOD married the Daughters of men. where did the Daughters of men come from? in my personal opinion i believe that the Sons of GOD were the offspring of Adam and Eve. therefore the Daughters of men had to come from apes. i believe that GOD used both creationism and evolutionism to start everything on this planet. in case you are wondering i am a Christian and a Catholic.

Update:

the fallen angels from heaven did not falll to earth but to hell therefore they cannot be the daughters of man. GOD is the same GOD whether HE is the GOD of the Christians, the Jews or Moslems or any other non satanic religion. since GOD is all powerful HE can do things the way that HE wants to and if HE so chooses to use evolution as well as creationism to create this world then HE can do it and it is not up to us to judge HIM. it is time for all of us to become more open-minded and accepting of GODs abilities and decisions and lesrn to get along with each other. that is what HE expects from all of us in this world.

    adam and eves kids had to marry each other until there was some diffrent folks around. after cain killed able the line of cain had children who were not of God so that is where the daughters of men came from. The sons of God came from the line of seth the same line jesus comes from. Sadly the line of seth found that cains kids were attractive and married into that line and thats where this verse came from.

    The whole thing about angels or aliens is just crazy talk. angels cant have sex or children.

    I believe that you have misunderstood dear.

    The " Sons of God " is referring to Fallen Angels.

    The " Daughters of Men " are referring to Earth women.

    The Offspring are called " Nephilim ".

    Humanity did not come from apes dear. Humanity is a higher form of life. But most important of all, if this dogmatic statements were true.......... then why are there still apes on this planet ? Why did they ( the apes ) not all change or evolve into humanity?

    Do not remain decieved by the world dear. Do not take the Mark of the Beast. Stand for something, or prepare yourself to fall for anything. Arm yourself with knowledge, for it's okay to also study science.

    I just listened to a talk by Scott Hahn and Jeff Cavins on the Bible and during that talk, they mention that.

    According to them, the son's of God were the descendants of Seth and the Daughter's of men were the descendants of Cain.

    You mean their Mothers were Apes? because they were the Daughter's of men,I guess you must mean that the Mama's were Apes . But actually ,it doesn't say in 6:1 that when Apes began to multiply and daughter's were born to them. It say man, and man in the bible means both men and women . Basically, it just means , the daughter's of ' other ' men .

    I am Muslim who loved your question! Do you know why? Because now you used your head well. People have to think well as you are thinking.

    [Jesus Prayed to Allah (God) And he went a little farther, and fell on his face, and prayed]

    Mathew 26:39

    So if Jesus is a God as some people think then who is he praying to? This is common sense Question, Right!

    For sure he was paying o his God. The God is not his father but his creator. But because the ancient Christians saw that Jesus have no father then they said: For sure the God is his father.

    The sons of the Christians do believe in their pervious fathers and change verses in Bible. Why the Just read Quran well and see who Quran has talk a lot about all prophet of God and even Mary which hold very strong position in Islam.

    Also why so many priests converted to Islam while rarly normal Muslim convereted to Christianity??!!!!!

    For sure they find the religiion that baised on fact evidence and logical proofs and find the way of prophets of God (Allah).

    The Bible does not say that Adam and Eve were the only humans created by God, just the first male and female.

    You may have descended from an ape but I didn't.

    They were not angels - angels do not procreate. They were created all at once.

    The sons of God were sons of Seth - the sons of men were the sons of Cain. Man did not evolve from animals. God created animals and human beings. Human being were created in the image and likeness of God.

    The "sons of God" that you speak of, were the rebellious angels.

    They fashioned physical bodies for themselves, & 'went taking' as many women as the wanted . . . They were able to procreate with the women, & their children were sons who grew to be violent {like their fathers who followed Satan the Devil: "That one was a manslayer when he began . . ." --John 8:44) giants / the nephilim. . .

    *> Demons--Who Are They? http://watchtower.org/e/20060115/article_02.htm

    The demons went back to the spirit realm when the Flood occured, while their hybrid offspring drowned.

    The concept of Evolution & Creation are in direct opposition to one another. I at one point thought that God used evolution in his creative process, but only because of what school taught, which was based on theory rather than scientific fact . . .

    There are many different ideas about the creation account, but only one of them coincides with scientific fact, &, it also harmonizes perfectly with the Bible itself. Just . . .

    ". . . Let this one fact not be escaping your notice . . . that one day is with Jehovah as a thousand years and a thousand years as one day." --2 Peter 3:8

    God's time frame is *much* different than ours. Like ours is to a mouse---Mice have several batches of offspring, eat & run around like crazy {from our standpoint), & die---All of this within just 2 years. During this time, a baby might just be learning to walk! We also need to take into consideration that the word 'day' --rather than alway meaning a 24 hour day, also has the following definitions:

    - some . . . period in time;

    - a day *assigned to a particular purpose* . . . ;

    - an era of existence or influence

  • Daughters of Adam, and they didnt marry them, they just took them.

    Please try and understand that we are reading the ENGLISH transliteration of the Hebrew Text.

    It said daughters of Adam not generic men.

    Angels of God in the Hebrew, not son's.
