Re: Was there a day old baby in Sodom? It was Sodom.

...any decent family types had apparently left the area.
This seems wrong on several accounts. First of all, plenty of decent family types live in indecent, non-family environments, no?
And pleny of indecent, non-family types still manage to have children.
The assumption that there were no children in Sodom when it was destroyed appears to be a rationalization to get the Biblical text to agree with one's 21st century sensibilities.
Do you also believe that there were no children on the earth when Noah's flood began?
Edited to complete a previous incomplete edit.

Re: Was there a day old baby in Sodom? It was Sodom.

Of the remaining men left in the city, they were all homosexual.
So, you are saying that all homosexuals are wicked and deserve to die, deary me, so much for Christian love.
Sorry to butt in again, but could someone remind me why it is assumed that homosexuality is the particular sin that was committed in Sodom and Gomorrha?

Great pun!!
Yeah, I saw it after I typed it, but decided to leave it in. As a test to see if anyone else has as dirty a mind as I do.
Thanks for the reply.
