Saint,
[Good and they should have gave him a mirror for him to view whom really is not attractive.
Answer: He and his Nationality!!!! ]

Perhaps that's taking it a bit far, eh? Sure I agree that the "good doctor" is not handsome, but I've seen many Asians that are to die for (like the late Bruce Lee). Although I will agree to disagree with you on that point, I thank you for your contributions to all my blogs because you definitely give me and others lots to think about. Besides that, I can count on you to enlighten us all with your knowledge of historical facts of the bible, eh! That's what I call keeping it in the family. Is that so bad if the people consent afterall Jewish people marry their relatives. It's their culture and tradition. Also when the brother dies and leaves behind his widow, it was expected that someone in the same family (probably a brother) take the brother's wife as his own.

Jake the part I don't get is how Lot was able to screw his two daughters when he was passed out drunk!

Brother Steve,
You make me laugh~Ha! He probably hadn't passed out until afterwards. Alcohol makes people a little horney so I'm sure he passed afterwards! (Lol)
