On The Deep End, guest Gary Wayne treats biblical giant stories as one long claim, not as loose folklore. A giant, he says, could set an arm back or mend himself unless the head was fully taken off, which is why he pauses on David removing Goliath’s head and on five stones, one more than the brothers or kings David thought he might face. He separates an early Genesis 6 sketch from a later book aimed at Christian readers, and he reads the days of Noah, on both sides of the flood, as the pattern for later trouble. Giants stood before the flood and after it, and blood drinking continued among them and, at an inner grade, in secret societies. Dracula, for him, still carries that belief. Anything bigger than an ordinary living kind belongs inside the Nephilim idea. Artificial intelligence, he adds, is angelic technology being pushed faster, and it serves the same rebellion against God. The flood and Babel are restarts in his chronology, not a final end.
Key points
- A giant in his account can repair a body unless the head has truly been cut away.
- He reads David’s extra stone, and the severing of Goliath’s head, as part of that giant problem.
- Giants and the drinking of blood, he says, run through both sides of the flood and into later secret groups.
- He folds stories of unusually large beings into the Nephilim idea as a whole.
- Artificial intelligence, on his claim, is hurried angelic technology used in rebellion against God.
- The flood and Babel are fresh starts in his timeline, not the close of the story.
Short quotes
