There's only one way the foreign DNA could have made it into modern human populations. "We're talking about sex," said Joshua Akey of the University of Washington, whose lab identified the foreign DNA in three groups of modern Africans. The human family tree just got another mysterious branch, an African "sister species" to the heavy-browed Neanderthals that once roamed Europe. While no fossilized bones have been found from these enigmatic people, they did leave a calling card in present-day Africans: snippets of foreign DNA. There's only one way that genetic material could have made it into modern human populations. "Geneticists like euphemisms, but we're talking about sex," said Joshua Akey of the University of Washington, whose lab identified the foreign DNA in three groups of modern Africans. These genetic leftovers do not resemble DNA from any modern humans. The foreign DNA also does not resemble Neanderthal DNA, which shows up in the DNA of some modern Europeans, Akey said. That means the newly identified DNA came from an unknown group....

I thought all the angel infected people died in the Flood.
That is correct. Only Noah’s family came through the flood. Goliath came much later.
There once was a gent named McTavish
Who fancied an anthropoid ravish;
In his haste for the rape
He grabbed the wrong ape
And the anthropoid ravished Mctavish.
Are you implying there are people living today desended from Jesus? If not then there is no longer any supernatural-DNA.
Again, it's more complex and there are no simple explanations. At least none that we know of today.
For starters, angels exist, humans and the physical world is being "manipulated" from this and other plane(s), the prophecies of the Bible come true, and there is an existence after this life on earth.
There is likely much, much more we don't know about and couldn't comprehend if we did...
(Proof of Fallen Angles)
I think I saw this on an episode of the TV show “Supernatural”.
No..I think it is totally correct...
DNA exists in the Physical and the Super-Natural..
DNA Tests Find Jesus’ Blood On Turin Shroud
Electronic Telegraph
The Turin Shroud will be at the center of fresh controversy when a scientist details his claims to have isolated DNA from the “blood of Jesus.”
Try to stay focused. The article (which is what we are discussing) talks about DNA in people living now. Unless Jesus procreated then none of the DNA in living people is related to Jesus’ blood.
What makes you think there is supernatural DNA in living people? What would make us go there?
It would be interesting to compare with Mary's, if a source for her DNA exists.
Satan took one third of the angles and fought with the angles in Heaven. The angles that went with Satin are the fallen angles and the ones that stayed in Heaven are the regular angles.
There were giants, there ARE giants. Created though natural and understood processes.
bump for later
How would that work? The DNA is transcribed by RNA polymerase into a messenger RNA that spells out how to make a protein that is capable of supernatural miraculous activity? Really?
God is spirit. Jesus was God in spirit and man in flesh (DNA).
No doubt the paternal contribution of the DNA of Jesus was from Joseph - making Jesus of the line of David as described in Luke and Matthew.
DNA doesn't do anything magical. It is the recipe for how to make protein molecular machines that obey the laws of physics.
Although this bit of supernatural idiocy does bring to mind the Sci-Fi book I read years ago (before I knew what DNA did) “Children of the Shroud” where someone made clones of Jesus (including female clones by doubling up on the X) from the “blood” on the Shroud of Turin.
TaraP - you seem as fixated on your one size fits all answer of “Angels” as the ‘alien hair guy’ is on his one size fits all answer.
I'm confused. Are you talking about angels, or geometry and sewing?
There were giants, there ARE giants. Created though natural and understood processes.
Some of these “Giants” were said to be up to 35 feet tall.
even a 15 giant is beyond natural selection.
Jesus said:
“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature...
John 3:3 Being born again is not a philosophical position but an actual change in the spiritual DNA of a person . It is having the characteristic of God inhabiting your mind body and soul. This change brings about such a radical change in ones behavior that the Bible declares this, Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new...
The Article is in regards to DNA that is not NEW but part of an unknown origin.
No one has ever claimed you can prove someone is Born Again by a marker in his DNA. Therefore your Bible quote is inapt.

I am dyslexic and spell check does not help.
