What Is It about Being a Son of a Son of God that Makes Man Evil?

You remember The Flood (for which G*d told Noah to build the Ark ... this one being a huge boat, and not (yet) the coveted prize of a George Lucas film). G*d sent it because the Sons of God impregnated the Earth's women, and their spawn was constantly evil---causing G*d to 'repent of ever having created such a being.'
What made the children of the Sons-of-G*d so evil?
I think it was because--though they each had the 'spirit of G*d' within them--their reality was nothing but 'the scum of the Earth.' Whereas the material-of-G*d was only limited by G*d's ability to formulate His Imagination into Words, man's material was limited to the already-created material which he could gather and guard as his own.
'The spirit of G*d' wants to own every created-thing (or he wants every created thing to serve him as he intends it to). But--if I want a created-thing to do as I direct it, yet you want the very-same created-thing to do as you direct it--it's Pure Democracy (every person a ruler with no safety-guard of Representation/Fealty to sort-out 'whose created-things were whose').
THAT is why "G*d's name is Jealous": Because What else could you call 'a spirit that wants everything to act as if the spirit owns the thing'? (I.e. 'Jealous' is not the name He brings for Himself, it's the name that springs forth to us from the interaction of His Presence with the scum of the Earth.)
Or what do you think makes us 'Sons-&-Daughters of Sons of God' so evil?

The Sons of G'd were not supposed to think or interact with anything more debase than themselves...Which humans were. Just as angels did not interact with either of these beings.
HaShem was not jealous of these creatures, He had created a hierarchy and they did not respect it. It is not that the humans were "evil", it is that they were on a different level. HaShem cannot be compared to a mortal ruler...He is immortal and unexplainable in human terms. He is the Creator, not the ruler.
I think that this is actually a teaching tool, but I will take it no further than that, as the world and others never learned the teaching..
