Read this carefully and think.
The Story of Sodom & Gomorrah (Genesis 19) is often used to condemn homosexuality. Deity sends angels disguised as men to Sodom. The men of Sodom threaten go gang rape them. The angels blind the would-be rapists, and
God sends two angels disguised as men into the City of Sodom where the men of Sodom threatened to rape them. The angels blind the men, and God destroys the city. For centuries, this story was interpreted as God's judgment God destroys Sodom. NIV.
(1) gang-rape is condemned
(2) God would have condemned heterosexual gang rape as well
(3) one logically infers that God is displeased with those who threaten violence on visitors
Ezekial 16:49 adds more to the story. "Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy." KJ.
"Now, this was the sin of your sister, Sodom. She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed, and unconcerned, they did not help the poor and needy."
If anyone uses the story to condemn homosexual relations, they miss the story's meaning.
