The Giants of Genesis season 2 episode 6
Aired on Sunday, December 21, 2008 at 6:30pm ET

In Genesis 6:4 of the Old Testament it says: "There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the 'sons of God' came unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown." Who are these giants that the bible speaks about? From Goliath of Gath to the mighty King Og, this episode journeys through the archaeology that could explain who these other beings could have been.

They found half-breeds in the tombs around Gath -- half Sapiens and half Neanderthals.  The Neanderthals were the "others" that was mistranslated into "gods."  In Hebrew, the words are very similar due to a lack of vowels.

Yes, Neanderthals and Sapiens interbred.  Yes, we all have a greater or lesser amounts of Neanderthal blood in us.  But for some reason Neanderthal genes are in the minority in our society.  The Sapiens call themselves "normal" and call us all sorts of names.
