how do you derail/divert attention from one thread by starting another...? :huh:

two threads/topics simultaniously too much for you...?

Are we going to see any support for your assertion?

Not so. He destroyed them because Lot moved out. Nothing would have happened if he'd stayed. Mind you, that was only a promise he made to Abraham, and we know what they were like.

Premise 1 - The Bible is true.
Premise 2 - Genesis says Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed by God for something.

Since Ezekiel says that it was the Republican lifestyle that destroyed Sodom, given that P1 is true, we can only conclude that Ezekiel is accurate.

we see mata leao make this affirmative claim:

I am a Christian fundamentalist! Homosexuality is an abomination in the eyes of God and he wiped Sodom and Gomorrah off the map with fire and brimstone, in large part, because of it.
What's abominable about homosexuality according to your god or you, or both? Something's fishy here.

I opened it as a history/archaeology question, mostly. mata leao made an interesting claim; I want to see if he can prove it.

To wit, he needs to show that:

1. these cities ever existed in the first place;
2. they were destroyed in the same fashion as he claims;
3. the reason for their destruction was his claimed "abomination" of homosexuality.

Ah yes, the veiled parting threat.
For full effect, this must be delivered with a fiendish cackle and a mustache twirl.
