I was watching Sid Roth one evening and two of his guests suggested that not only did the 'sons of God' mate with human females, but there was also genetic manipulation of animals.
In Genesis 7:2 (KJV) God commands Noah -
Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female; and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female.
The word clean is tahor. It means pure in a physical, chemical, ceremonial or moral sense. Related to taher - implied to be pure, physical-sound, clear, unadulterated. Levit. uncontaminated. morally - innocent or holy. clean, purge, purify.
Most importantly here, it must be noted that in the time of Noah, the Law did not yet exist, so no animals were considered unclean.
So why then did God command Noah to take clean beasts by sevens and unclean beasts only by twos? A bigger question is if the world, the evil of it, caused God to want to destroy it, why would He even allow the unclean beasts to survive? Wouldn't it have been better to allow the creatures altered from the way they were created to die and keep only those that were clean or unchanged?
All very interesting questions to which we have no real answers.

I agree that there was genetic manipulation in ancient times. Ancient manuscripts describe it in full. And Genesis does indeed seem to confirm it with it's comment that all flesh was "corrupted." I think the belief that there was no advanced technology in the past is erroneous.
