And one question I have is that if these are not celestial angels then they must be white.
Yet they were in the garden before the first man Adam.
And if these angels were white they would not create giants or abominations when they took the daughters of Adam.
And if there were angels on the earth that were not celestial (or created by fallen celestial angels) nor Adamic, then I would question their origination. They were not of God yet they were on the Earth.
They knew good, but they already had experienced evil. To me that means that they had rebelled against God, fallen from "heaven", and were already mongrelized. But they were called "angels" and "sons of heaven" because that is from where they had originally come. Just like the bastards of today often retain the names of their legitimate ancestors. The Creation was already corrupted. In that aspect, the revelation of Revelation chapter 12 connecting the fallen angels to "that old serpent" is reconciled in that manner.
