Yes, Ghost of a Duke, with the exception of eight people the human race had become half demon/half human. The "flood" preserved the human race through which the Prophesied Messiah would appear in hypostatic union [undiminished deity and perfect humanity in one person forever] at Christ's First Advent. God remains patient with each human being today, not willing that any should perish [John 3:16]. Satan's plan today is to confuse unbelievers with religion [emphasis on good works] and to undermine the priorities of believers in Christ [to grow in grace to maturity].
Thanks for the link. I'm not too surprised this topic has been discussed before.

RB, I've enjoyed your comments and am wondering how many moves a chess game between you and Him would last.
