Of course thats a horrific thing, don't pretend like we'd ever agree with that, asshole.As noted, one of your brethren referred to the desire of the gang for the men as merely wanting to have sex, but referred to the offering of the daughters as gang rape. Maybe you should just butt out if you're not going to follow along.
Quote:The point is that Lot offered up his own daughter to appease the mob. You can't honestly look on that and say it's a morally acceptable thing to do.And I haven't. I noted that Lot's actions may be the reason that he was not considered righteous, and ended up in a cave in the mountains.
Also note that some cultures have very strict codes requiring protection of a guest. Did you see or read Lone Survivor?

Are...you serious? The "consesual" thing to which was being referred is fuckin sodomy, sex between a man and a man, that drew the destructive ire of God, not the gang of rapists at Lot's door. Man on man sex gets you fireballs, offering your daughter up for a gang of rapists? Meh...
Do you honestly believe any of us would look at the gang of rapists and even try to portray it as "just consensual sex with a man"? Jesus dude..
And I don't care what sort of relativistic cultural justification you want to bring in.
