If he’s going to make an argument that widespread hosexuality led to a decline in birth rates, I’d listen. But “God punished them because they were homosexuals” is not a legitimate argument from a historian.

gods have been a part of history since forever.

so the point of history and historians is not quite proper as argument.

So the real question is Who is God and what does He want?

Do not take this as a personal challenge of right and wrong, but one of reflection.

Obviously God and religion are both part of history. The problem is that if you're just going to skip right to "it's God's will that they were destroyed because they were evil", them there's no room left for historical analysis. Civil wars, disease, currency debasement, elimination of the middle and farming classes, corruption, etc., all become irrelevant. There's nothing left to teach.
