When Life Was Easy

"The sons of God saw the beautiful women and took any they wanted as their wives." Gen. 6:2
This translation almost brings a tear to my eye. Oh, life would have been so much simpler then!

Even more funny (and kind of sad) is this next verse.
"Then the Lord said, 'My Spirit will not put up with humans for such a long time, for they are only mortal flesh. In the future, their normal lifespan will be no more than 120 years." Gen. 6:3

God put a cap on our existence because he couldn't put up with us for long. I think we can all understand that. Good call God.
