All I wanted to know by my inquiry was, "What are you meaning? What connection are you making between Sodom and Gomorrah and the minor prophets?" I was respecting you by trying to understand your meaning, which was not obvious. You could, and in my opinion should, have forestalled all of this by simply accompanying your original post by indicating something to the effect that: "Regarding your earlier link to Sodom and Gomorrah...." Common courtesy requires that much, instead of making a monkey out of me by making me guess.

Sorry: I was in a rush and had just posted that image someplace else so it was handy, and I did not think posting Biblically themed art (on a very major event) on a thread about Biblically themed art really needed explanation, while you seemed to be upset by this, and have yet to express any appreciation of these many profound paintings, even though your thread sees few responses.

First, please forgive the inconsiderate way I phrased my initial inquiry--it was thoughtless, and I offer no excuse. My God, especially through Ephesians 4:29, and my wife, through those same 44 years, have trained me to do better than that.

My threads' response counts are a matter of complete indifference to me, because I conduct this series not for the crowd but for my Lord; my job is to deliver to Him the loaves and fishes, but it is then His responsibility to deliver them to whomever He wishes. So, if you were making sport of me by alluding to them, you didn't score there.

I have refrained altogether from commenting on the pictures you have posted because you, not they, are my first and only priority while this discord and lack of rapport between us exists. Pictures are utterly unimportant to me compared to your value.
