The violence in the world is never a surprise to me anymore, but
the insensitivity to the suffering of others who are victims of it by
those who claim to be morally upright or godly is always a
disappointment. "Sodom and Gomorrah" represent actual places
that were subjected to divine judgment, but for much more than what most
folks zero in on that makes their story famous. Sexual perversion was
not the only abomination Sodom & Gomorrah was guilty of, nor is it the
first thing mentioned when God Almighty gives his reasons for why he
destroyed them in judgment. Sadly, The Most High couldn't even find ten
righteous people for whom he would have spared the whole for. History
has a funny way of repeating itself if we're not careful, and we're even
worst.
