So I've heard this theory before that whites are the spawn of fallen angels who, after they fell to earth, sought to enslave races of color and have dominion over the planet, and that they've made sure that white people would always be the elites or something like that.
The theory is a little crazy but sometimes I actually do wonder about it though. What do you think?
Are white people the descendants of fallen angels?
Myths like this are interesting from the standpoint that they show us how far our scientific understanding has come. But no, white people are not the spawn of fallen angels.
All humans have their origins in equatorial Africa. Dark skin protects against DNA damage and folate depletion caused by intense UV radiation. Through migration, humans reached much higher latitudes where there is much less direct UV radiation from the sun than in the tropics. Dark skin was not the advantage it was in lower latitudes. In fact, in higher latitudes, lighter skin was an advantage against vitamin D depletion.
So the melanin in your skin (or lack of it) is either an evolutionary advantage or disadvantage depending on where you live.
You mean the Nephilim? The offsprings of angels and men, usually described as people of great strength and power, and enemies of God. Some who study the Bible even theorize that Nephilim are behind all the inspiration for divinities like Zeus, Odin and other pagan minor gods, that they were actual people but of such power that humans worshiped them. But according to the Bible God wiped them all out in the flood.
As for the actual question, nothing suggests Nephilim were restricted to being white people. In those days there was a fair amount of white and black people in and around the mediterrenean and Middle East.

What utter drivel.
Notice that theists/spiritualists always put themselves at the centre of their imagined realities. I can guarantee that the people who came up with this idea and those that believe it are all white.
And I tend to think ideas like that stem from people, who may well be justifiably angry, but have neither the education nor the vocabulary to explain why their society is the way that it is. So they dehumanize people, in this case white people.
It only makes sense if you believe the cultural Marxist idea that white people are the only people to have enslaved other races and attempted to conquer others, that white people are evil and all other races are innocent - if you're completely ignorant of the real history of slavery.
The word slave literally comes from the word Slav, Eastern Europeans, because Turks, Arabs and Mongols enslaved them. During the Barbary slave trade also many Africans raided Europe, kidnapped and enslaved Europeans to sell them on in the Muslim slave trade, as far North as Iceland.
So yeah, the theory is just a nutcase theory by people who have no idea how the world really works.
This is a religious belief? If so, I can say I've never heard of this before. 8 years of Catholic school and many years of going to church with either my parents or grandparents as a kid and this has never been mention, like ever. Who say's this? Is this like something that comes from the bible? I'm just curious where this idea comes from.
This is a silly statement no matter how you read it. All people, white, black, green & yellow are all guilty of being horrible to others at different times in history. Slavery still exists in different parts of the world and probably will as long as one group has power over another. Women of all colors still suffer slavery more than any other group of humans

Nah, the light of the angels resembles light positive energy. If you ever had an amazing moment especially with a loved one you might feel like your glowing and everything is bliss. Thats what its like in contrast to a dark being which is like being depressed, feeling empty, envious, etc.

White people started the same place black and Asian people started. Created by God. Fallen angels are the angels who joined with Satan and fought God in heaven, and were cast out of heaven. Fallen angles are what we commonly call demons. Demons, fallen angels, are the one's who take the shape of dead relatives and speak like them, to deceive us into following the devil.
I don't really think so. If this really is the theory, then that means that all humans (no matter what race) are fallen angels. If you look at the individual historic backgrounds for each country, there were always slaves/masters of every color (even if the title went by a different name). I don't want to use a specific example, but most races have at some point in history, enslaved their own people and even traded them off to other countries.
I'm talking about interracial slavery. In the 9th century Moore's enslaved the Spanish people's. Vikings and tarters sold Slavic, Germanic and Celtic people's to Arabs.
Well actually it was the Africans who did the enslaving and selling of other Africans. Europeans just did the buying and for a pretty short time and in fewer numbers compared to African and Arab slave trade. African slaves taken to the Americas actually prospered.
You've gotta be a Republican, which I suspected. Believing the same lie that Africans sold their own people into slavery. African kings had no idea that the basic servitude they expected their people to work was going to be the schemed nightmare that whites tricked them with, and you can read all about that.
Come on get real. The enslavement and selling of slaves in Africa predates the Europeans arrival, it predates any European nation's existence. African kings and chiefs warred with each other captured and enslaving enemy warriors and civilians, then selling them to whoever wanted to buy, African kings grew wealthy and powerful from the slave trade and had their own slaves. Whites didn't trick them at all. Slavery in Africa existed before the Roman empire and contimes to this day.
But the slavery that Africans sold people into was basic servitude like how other societies did. Not putting people in chains, crowding them on ships, and bringing them to another country where they were poked, prodded, beaten, raped, tortured like animals, hated because of their skin color, perceived to be dumb, and brutally murdered. Caucasians did all that to slaves. Not Africans.
Nope it was slavery. Being forced to work without a choice or freedom to leave is slavery. They were already selling millions of slaves to Arab Muslims and before that Persians long before the Portuguese showed up. Arab Muslims used to cut the testicles of male African men. Africans enslaved other Africans and took them to their country where they were poked, prodded, beat, raped, and tortured like animals, hated not because of their skin color but because they were of a different tribe or ethnicity and because slavery was such a lucrative trade. Even today Africans are still doing that to each other far worse than anything that was done to them in the United States. Europeans didn't buy slaves from Africans because they were a different color, they did so because they needed cheap slave labor in the Americas as 90% of the natives had been wiped out by old world disceases.
Cutting a male slave's testicles off was not uncommon in in even other societies, and was done to keep them from starting families.
You believe your own Republican lies. "Systems of servitude and slavery were common in parts of Africa, as they were in much of the ancient world. In many African societies where slavery was prevalent, the enslaved people were not treated as chattel slaves and were given certain rights in a system similar to indentured servitude elsewhere in the world." - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery_in_Africa
Whereas European slavs owners allowed their African slaves their dignity and manhood and also breed them. African slaves in the colonies were well looked after. In many African societies sure but not the ones that were enslaving people and selling them to Arabs or Europeans to enrich themselves.
Just gonna say this. Wikipeadia is never a valid source of information. It's a good starting point but never use wikipeadia when trying to make a point.
I don't think humans are descendants of angels, or that there are fallen angels. The only thing is that the devil, was a different kind of angel but turned into a jinn after his disobedience. So.. as you say the theory is crazy.
Just another bullshit attempt to demonize white people. For one thing I'm atheist so I dont bielive any of this crap. But if this is an actual theory in the black community than I think people might have bigger problems to worry about.
Fallen angles. In the Bible bit was mentioned that angles had sex with women and produced a hybrid, called the nephalim but they died in the flood. But even if they had servived they could not have reproduced. Bit like a horse and a donkey, you get a mule which are sterile they cannot reproduce...
