Re: Giants? The Nephilim? | |

In Response To: Giants? The Nephilim? (Red Loser) : Hmmm...it's all coming together now. The following Bible passage takes place
: 6:1When man began to multiply on the face of the land and daughters were born
: 5 The Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that
: Footnotes
: This passage is somewhat contended by Bible scholars; the phrase "sons
: Notice that footnote (2) identifies their offspring, the Nephilim, as
: 32 So they brought to the people of Israel a bad report of the land that they
: So we can see that the Nephilim are indeed "giants" (Cortana
: Now, presumably these are fallen angels. In fact, the noncanonical (i.e.
Nice one. I knew you would pick up on the giant stuff. I too remembered the Cortana Letters, but I left stuff out as to not go too far on a tangent. Some interesting discussions. Let's not forget what 343 GUILTY SPARK said: "You can't imagine how exciting this is! To have a record of all of our lost time! Human history, is it? Fascinating." OUR lost time, like 343 Guilty Spark had been there with humans from the beginning, and somewhere along the way, he lost track of us. Fork Me With A Spoon, in another post in this thread, eluded to Forerunners as being part flesh and part machine. I was waiting for more on this. We have no history to fall back on, to say one way or another what the origins of humans are in the Halo Universe, in the Halo Novels. We have only the facts that some AI's are named after swords and some named after angels. Names can be changed, but personalities don't change all that much. The names seem to fit the personalities. Why would an AI guarding the DNA files of the Spartans be named after a fallen Angel who gave man the knowledge of husbandry (genetics)? The Covenant seem to be following some divine sequence of events, from where do the Prophets know what these events will be? It is like some of the key players are all reading the same script of events to come and purposely trying to make them happen, only then to change things at the end to defy fate. So what of AI constructs named after angels? Could and would an AI construct, that is named after an angel, wear a Halo? Halo meaning an artificial ring world created by the Great Ones, the Forerunner. Could AI constructs of the past been the fallen angels, mixing with flesh to create cyborgs? Could they have become the Prophets? Sure the Prophets call us demons, but maybe they are the demons. They fly on machines. Perhaps it is the Prophets that were or are to be the Nephilim. And what is the core, and why should a construct not be in it? Many safeguards were created on Installation 04 that apparently were designed to prevent a construct from siezing all of Halo. But then again, Cortana got into the core quite easily. Too many rambling thoughts for now... |
