you certainly made a great effort to say very little of significance. Most of what you say reads far too much into the text (especially about the Nephilim), and your errors multiply from there.

Allow me to make a case in point:

You say that Noah being "perfect in his generations" means he was racially pure. This is not what the original word means. The word translated as "generations" in the phrase you quote is not a matter of genetics but of time. In fact, the verse containing the quoted phrase uses two different words which are both translated "generation(s)": תּוֹלְדָה meaning genealogical descent, and דּוֹר meaning an era or the time span of a particular generation of people. The latter is the one used when describing Noah's righteousness. Noah was not good because he was "pure of race"; the passage says he was blameless among the other humans living at the same time he was living.
