 So interesting!  Yes, this sounds more plausible than the Bible on these subjects. I do believe the titans and giants were one and the same, with the evolution of semantics being what it is.  I mean, the Greeks have 8 words for love, for crissakes.  The need for religion(s) to explain away cataclysmic events, so that they can corral/exploit the emotions of the “profane” is just criminal.  As a Christian, I am not apostate, yet I have questions.   And we are subject to a history inscribed by the victors of bloody state/territory wars. Kinda sus.
