Genesis 19:30-38
#Lot and His Daughters
30 Lot and his two daughters left Zoar and settled in the mountains, for he was afraid to stay in Zoar. He and his two daughters lived in a cave. 31 One day the older daughter said to the younger, “Our father is old, and there is no man around here to give us children—as is the custom all over the earth. 32 Let’s get our father to drink wine and then sleep with him and preserve our family line through our father.”
33 That night they got their father to drink wine, and the older daughter went in and slept with him. He was not aware of it when she lay down or when she got up.
34 The next day the older daughter said to the younger, “Last night I slept with my father. Let’s get him to drink wine again tonight, and you go in and sleep with him so we can preserve our family line through our father.” 35 So they got their father to drink wine that night also, and the younger daughter went in and slept with him. Again he was not aware of it when she lay down or when she got up.
36 So both of Lot’s daughters became pregnant by their father. 37 The older daughter had a son, and she named him Moab he is the father of the Moabites of today. 38 The younger daughter also had a son, and she named him Ben-Ammi he is the father of the Ammonites of today

was dude literally getting chased by a god-fearing christian for reading aloud from their sacred book? if so, what a nutty religion. if the book upsets them so, maybe they should try adopting other reading materials.

They really don’t like this reality-based reality, do they?

The bible is a deeply weird book.

For a religion professing that the mere uttering of any reference to genitalia is unholy, their holy book sure makes a lot of references to genitals and genital mutilation.
Disturbing does not begin to describe this fascination.

That’s because many of the people who have this extreme interpretation don’t actually read their holy book…

I grieve for you, Jonathan my brother;
you were very dear to me.
Your love for me was wonderful,
more wonderful than that of women.

There are so many historical novels that are much better, and don’t feature a thuggish gangster as the main character in the first section.

My personal favorite; Lot offering his daughters to a mob - Genesis 19:8
4 ¶ But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter:
5 And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.
6 And Lot went out at the door unto them, and shut the door after him,
7 And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly.
8 Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes: only unto these men do nothing; for therefore came they under the shadow of my roof.

Later in life Ben-Ammi became just a shell of his former self.

This guy is old, and insensible from alcohol, and still managed to perform? Twice in two days?
I think we might have stumbled across something in the bible that doesn’t make sense!

39 The younger daughter turned to the older, and asked, “How should we refer to this act we have performed?” The older replied, “The Aristocrats!”
