Wow...well, I guess it depends on how far you want to take the definition of "hospitality." Personally my limit is a nice cup of tea, but them maybe I'm being old-fashioned...

Actually, historically, in some cultures, hospitality included providing a sexual companion, typically of the opposite sex, but not always. Doesn't make buggery right, though.

Actually, hospitality is taken very seriously in that area of the world. Once you've accepted a guest in your house, they are to be treated as a member of your family and defended as if they were blood relations, as long as they are under your roof.

"...nice cup of tea..."
You inhospitable b*stard!!!
Beware the fate of Sodom!!
You should at least offer a cookie...or a couple of buns. ;^)

The new Annotated Bible edited in part by pro-"gay" and feminist scholars adopts "gay" revisionist interpretations of Holy Scripture such as that God allegedly destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah for the sin of inhospitality ? not homosexual sin. I didn't know that you could go to hell for bad manners. Now I know why my mother was so adamant about not having your elbows on the dinner table.

Personally my limit is a nice cup of tea... This revision does, however, put a whole new spin on the time honored question, "how do you take your tea?"
