Ooooh! Oodles and Oodles of fun.

Thanks, SunkenCiv!!

[SunkenCiv]

My pleasure.

Regarding these sites, I think the findings should be taken with a grain of, uh, never mind.

Oh my, you posted her, oh the wonderful joys of my youth, the pitter patter of my little heart beats. Such a hot babe!

So, how could they tell it was Sodom? Did they find same-sex pairs of burned skeletons wrapped in each others arms?

[MeshugeMikey]

all details have yet to be announced//

“Did they find same-sex pairs of burned skeletons wrapped in each others arms?”

No, they found better evidence indicating the city was a part of the Minoan culture that practiced pederasty of male children as a mandatory part of the culture’s child rearing.

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

If America doesn't acknowledge the depravity of sodomy and other immorality and apostasy, it will have no excuse before God the Judge for being judged as Gomorrah and Sodom in a fiery ending:

Yellowstone supereruption.

If you think that’s bad, you should try the Washington Times site. That can freeze my computer up, and I have 8 GB RAM.

No, they found better evidence indicating the city was a part of the Minoan culture that practiced pederasty of male children as a mandatory part of the culture’s child rearing.

In other words, Afghanistan.

See the archaeologist’s video presentation and his story explaining the reasons for the proposed identification of the city as Sodom and the sexual practices of its Minoan style culture.

“Yellowstone supereruption.”

The authors of a research paper are not yet ready to publish their paper, but hints so far indicate they will be presenting their evidence of a catastrophic “heat event” caused by an astronomical impactor, such as a comet or small asteroid that mostly burned up when impacting the Earth’s atmosphere above the Jordan Valley and the sin cities. Such an event is capable of compressing the atmosphere with the impact wave to crush the landscape below the point of impact in the above atmosphere and raise the air temperatures to hundreds or thousands of degrees Fahrenheit in the explosive flash.

Speculatively, the flash of light that blinded the wicked outside Lot’s doorway could have been the atmospheric impact of a meteor preceding the later main impact, and the final rain of destruction could have been the main swarm of objects in a comet or small asteroid disintegrating upon impact in the atmosphere above the Jordan Valley.

wow

[Bigg Red]

Spot on.
(But I think you mean “syncretic”.)

[imardmd1]

I guess you think you need to find a four-dimnsional explanation to a supernatural event that is above it.

I can appreciate your concern. Now, explain how The Being Who Is, Was, and Is To Come fashioned sinless human flesh out of "the dust" (עפר ‛âphâr) of the "ground" (אדמה 'ădâmâh) and breathed automotivation, soul, and spirit transferrable in the DNA of it.

Much more humbling than merely calling forth space, time, and mass/energy ex nihilo.

“I guess you think” I’m responsible for the articles being written by other people. If so, you are barking up the wrong tree. This is all information in the news, FWIW or not, as you please. The Universe is as it was created, and you can argue ad infinitum about the Creator and the Creation. I have no doubt you can find an endless supply of those who will, and those who will observe the existence of the supernatural does no necessarily exclude the occurrence of the natural events.
