We're all super-stoked to welcome Baby Isaac!
Last night, Sam and I went to Beowulf. Yes, there're parts in there where Angelina Jolie's evil dragon lady monster character isn't wearing anything but water drops, so there's a "look-away" factor, but the epic-ness of it was great...
And you know what? After that, we looked at the real poem, the gilgamesh epic, the nephilim, and the race of Cain in antediluvian times... then we looked at the reality of nephilim in post-diluvian times, and discussed all kinds of stuff from the Bible...
Considering the possibility of the monsters of Beowulf... that's what made the poem so good to the people of its day. And us? Are we so evolved? So enlightened? Have we come so far from the possibility of monsters and demons?
