genesis 19 what is the moral

....The book forbids incest then I see this ? Lot is supposed to be one of holiest people a prophet and you do this to him? A prophet not else? I am asking what is the moral of this story ?....

Those that can convince you of absurdities, can make you commit atrocities

The moral of the storybook is that it is without it. A critical thinker would see through it, and enjoy the fable like a bawdy joke.

While a dogmatist could contort like a gymnast trying to justify the obvious contradiction, the absence of ethics, the looseness of 'divine' commandments, etc.....it will all be for nought.

Forgive me lord for my joke on thee, and I shall forgive thy big one on me
