It's a slippery slope

Remember Sodom and Gomorrah.
Sodom and Gomorrah was one story. And it wasn't only condemning homosexuality.
Look at all the Bible has to say about adultery. It's brought up hundreds of times and is part of the 10 Commandments. Homosexuality is brought up a few times and isn't part of the 10 Commandments.
But people don't give a crap about adultery these days.
It's nothing but hypocrisy. Sheer, blatant hypocrisy.
But ONLY Sodom and Gomorrah. That part about Lot being raped by his daughters, yeah just forget you read that. In fact, don't read that part. It hasn't aged well and puts the morality of the old testament in a different light... as in it kills all moral authority the Bible tries to claim it has...
Do you think the Bible includes that as a prescription of what people SHOULD do? That just describes how the tribes of the Moabites and Ammonites, who were such a problem to Israel, came from. In the 10 Commandments incest was forbidden.
It's bizarre how some people act like every single word in the Bible is a commandment.
All the Bible is Scripture, but it is not all God's speaking. It includes man's thoughts, with his speaking, such as Job's friends. After all their blather, God came in and rebuked them. It also includes God's speaking. He said in Isaiah 55, My thoughts are not your thoughts, and your ways are not My ways. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so My ways are higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts. It also includes Satan's speaking. You should differentiate who is speaking or you might end up taking death into yourself, like Adam and Eve did. Nevertheless, ALL Scripture is profitable "for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness."
