That does not mean they were improving the church just the site...

The point was for San Franciscans to go there for a repeat performance.

I know a pastor who was asked to leave a church because he preached though the book of genesis, and didn't skip anything.

Hey, is Lot's wife found yet? Yeah, I understand she'd make a terrific cow lick.

Thanks Waggs. I wonder where the thing is located. The fort of Bela / Zoar overlooked the north basin (the deep one, and the only one with water in it nowadays) of the Dead Sea (at that time, the Valley of Siddim), and was the place to which Lot ran to avoid destruction, after pleading to the Lord to spare that place. Let's face it, Lot took the easy way out wherever possible. In the case of Zoar, he simply didn't want to be on the road all day and night. Please FREEPMAIL me if you want on, off, or alter the "Gods, Graves, Glyphs" PING list --

That's the story, probably the cave. Why are we celebrating incest with a museum?
To: madison10
Well, at least it's Jordan doing it. I don't think there are any U.S. funds involved.

We don't have to bring up that salacious rumor about Lot and his daughters, hehehe.

Lot's Museum, being built some 300 metres from the cave where Lot and his family sought refuge from the devastation of Sodom and Gomorrah, is set to showcase the area's dazzling topography and unique geological facets. Check out the ammonite design of the museum.
To: wagglebee
Oh yeah, I can't wait to tour again in an Arab country. I'm sure Zarqawi's buds wouldn't bother us little Chritians when we go to the museum.

Sodomy has different definitions from State to State.
But what the heck is Gomorrahy?

Gomorrah (Jerry Garcia Band)Just a song of Gomorrah, I wonder what they did there Must've been a bad thing to get shot down for I wonder how they blew it up or if they burned it down Get out, get out Mr. Lot and don't you turn around.
Who gave you your orders, someone from the sky I heard a voice inside my head in the desert wind so dry I heard a voice tellin' me to flee the very same voice I always believe Say alot of trouble comin', but it don't have to come to you I'm telling you so you can tell the rest what you've been through.
But don't you turn around, no, don't look after you It's not your business how it's done, you're lucky to get through You're a good upstanding man, a credit to the flock But if you don't face straight ahead you could not take the shock Blew the city off the map, left nothing there but fire The wife of Lot got turned to salt, because she looked behind her.
