I’ve seen
several episodes of Star Trek, where members of the Federation of
Planets disguised themselves as inhabitants of various less advanced
civilizations, and conducted covert missions among the natives, who were not
aware of them as coming from other worlds. The way I understand the Bible, this
is exactly the same thing as angelic intervention.
In the Star
Trek episodes that included this activity, they referred to a “prime
directive” they followed, which dictated interspecies conduct with less
advanced civilizations. Certainly angels have rules they follow when they are
among us in disguise; they generally don’t blow their cover, for one. However,
their rules for interspecies interaction are nothing like the prime directive
in Star Trek.
For those
unfamiliar with Star Trek and the prime directive, the prime directive
is a strict policy of noninterference mandated by intergalactic explorers belonging
to a Federation of Planets. The policy of noninterference was an issue of
ethics based on the anthropological premise that interference of
technologically advanced species into the lives of less technologically
advanced species may create more problems than it would solve.1 But in reality, true interspecies
interaction includes something not mentioned in Star Trek—the will of
God, at least with beings faithful to God. In fact, the only true prime
directive that exists can be reduced to one thing: God’s will.
As for fallen angels, they’re here for their own self interests, such as pleasure seeking,
and to be worshipped as gods and such. They interfere with complete disregard
to their effects upon societies, so long as they don’t get apprehended by the
good guys. In the past, they got away with quite a bit. In fact, they almost
destroyed the world. For those familiar with Genesis 6, I consider it an
obvious conclusion that the sons of God mentioned there, which were actually
fallen angels having sexual relations with human females, violated the true prime
directive. That’s what defines them as fallen angels, rather than faithful
angels. They were here spawning the inspiration of the Greek legends, among
many others known throughout the ancient world.
While the account of Genesis 6 is frequently explained away by Christians in a variety of ways, all designed to exclude angelic human sexual intercourse, simply because it sounds too outlandish and confrontational to the mythological worldview of so many Christians, archeological evidence tends to support a literal
interpretation of the Biblical text. For example, the area surrounding the Tower of Babel is cluttered with various religious temples. In fact, right next to the Tower of Babel is the temple of Marduk, which was the center of Babylon’s religious life. According to the writings of the ancient Greek historian Herodotus, this temple once contained a gold sculpture of its so-called god that weighed no less than 22 tons.2
Further documented in the writings of Herodotus is evidence of the same activity that the Bible documents in Genesis 6.
At the summit of the Tower of Babel, Herodotus wrote, ‘here stands a great temple with a fine
large couch in it, richly covered, and a golden table beside it. The shrine
contains no image and no one spends the night there except a Babylonian woman,
all alone, whoever it may be that the god has chosen. The god then enters the
temple in person and takes his rest upon the bed.”3
While it
is likely that this is an example of religious perversion among the high
priests of the Babylonian religion, I find it probable that this may also be an
example of sexual union between the Sons of God, and the daughter’s of men. My
personal opinion is that these ritualistic sexual encounters may have begun
with the Sons of God, as stated in Genesis 6, and also after the flood of Noah,
starting in Genesis 11. Later, when the high priests of this religious sect
found out that they could also assume the identities of these gods, or
insist that they were given the authority to perform such practices–and could
get away with it, they then also partook of this activity. (Lots of
conjecture here–I admit it–but at least not without any basis).
