Food for thought (Genesis 19:1-38)

In the biblical story of Sodom and Gomorrah, God sends two angels to warn Lot and his family, who are the only good people between both towns, to flee. The men of Sodom demand Lot sends out the angels, so they may rape them. Lot offers to send out his virgin daughters instead. The men refuse and demand the angels. Lot and his family flee, but his wife looks back and is turned into a pillar of salt. As they travel searching for a new home, Lot's daughters begin having sex with him in his sleep to carry on the family bloodline.

What exactly is the moral here? Offer your daughters up to be raped, and they'll sleep with you later?

If I were to make a verbatim movie of the Old Testement it would only play sleazy skid row grindhouses, paired with Bloodsucking Freaks and Fleshpot on 42nd Street.

Siskel & Ebert gave Fleshpot on 42nd Street two fingers up.

At least you read the Bible even if you do so with extremely little understanding.

@Anton Yeah, well, I've already done the whole Christian thing. I was a true believer. The truest to be found in the whole Pacific Northwest. I read the Bible clear through, three times. Went to church, listened to nothing but contemporary Christian music, literally had the t-shirt. You'd think God would have told you that before you started this.
