					<description><![CDATA[i have serious questions about the supposed &quot;righteousness&quot; of Lot.
.
1 - the text is quite clear that the habits of the men of Sodom were well established, clearly prior to visitation of the angels with Abraham.  why is it assumed that Lot did not experience the exact same welcome and hospitality with which the angels were greeted?

2 - Lot&#039;s response in the moment says a great deal.  yes, Lot knew enough to recognize the angels when he saw them.  but he ALSO KNEW that the only chance of dissuading the mob was to throw his daughters to them.  is this the act of a righteous man?

3 - post destruction, Lot fathers children on BOTH of his daughters.  at their instigation, true.  but Lot was the one who chose to get drunk.  once again, where is the &quot;righteousness&quot;.

4 - there was no reason for Lot and his daughters to be hiding in the mountain at all.  Lot had already begged for Zoar to be spared, the angels had granted his request AND LOT HAD ALREADY ENTERED Zoar.  it was not until AFTER Sodom and the rest of the cities of the plain had been destroyed, excepting Zoar, that Lot then hid in the mountains with his daughters.  what is Lot hiding from?  the judgment has already passed.  sounds an awful lot like Lot had knew that he was guilty to me.

5 - Lot&#039;s wife clearly yearned for the sins of Sodom and Gomorrah, otherwise she would not have been turned into a pillar of salt.

the upshot being, that i&#039;m pretty sure that God would not have counted Lot himself amongst the 10 righteous men necessary to spare Sodom.

despite whatever Peter and the rabbis might have thought of Lot.]]></description>
