Only natural disasters are mentioned in Sodom and Gomorrah#Historicity when it should be obvious from the Biblical stories that if there is any truth to the stories, that it's a simple case of mass murder by religious extremists who did not approve of the lifestyle of the people living in these cities. In the Bible we read the perpetrator's account of what happened, and when the story is told and retold over many generations, it becomes an act of God.
If Hitler had won WWII and the Nazis would have ruled Europe for many generations, what would the Nazi history books have written about the Jews and how they ended up vanishing? Count Iblis (talk) 12:02, 13 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
It's explained on Wikiversity: Lot's family is thus metaphorically an arbitrary family, but in the unlikely situation of being surrounded by the city's inhabitants, who are all doomed. If the network has to break it has to break within a family, consequently it has to break in this family. This being understood, all families should aim not to be in this situation and the perfect society would result. --Irgend so einer (talk) 08:34, 25 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
