It has to be in California.

Move over Frisco,the original buggery capital is being unearthed.

Very interesting, thanks for posting.

I don't know about you but I am finding more and more Freepers don't read. They want it ALL out there in front of them.

“Exciting New Archaeological Evidence Uncovered Could be the Site of Biblical Sodom”

Maybe we should back into this?

Any pillar of salt found outside of town?

I had a professor in college try to tell us one time that God destroyed Sodom because the inhabitants treated the angelic visitors poorly. I corrected her and told her it was destroyed because of the homosexuality that was pervasive there. She was absolutely floored by my statement and vehemently tried to discount what I had said. I then said, “Where do you think the word ‘sodomy’ comes from? “ She kicked me out of the class for the rest of the day. Wasn’t the last time she kicked me out either. I had her for 2 other classes and got A’s in all of them !

Pyroclastic ash flow. White hot glass moving from the eruption sight at the speed of sound.

That would explain the account of Lott's wife being turned into a pillar of salt.

My guess is she actually turned around and returned to the city and died with the rest of the inhabitants of the region.

Interesting but hardly proof that this site was Sodom.

There are probably a number of sites that would be marked as an event that people suffered horrible deaths.

Until they find something that definitively marks this site as Sodom we just don't know.

Interesting, but not as compelling as this film:

It would be interesting if they can verify that is the site and what destroyed it...

[WoofDog123]

one interesting thing I saw no elaboration on was speculation on the nature of the directional event. How many directional events can you get in jordan? An impact is the only natural cause I can think of, maybe an airburst event like Tugunska or however the russian location is spelled?

A fun and interesting video of an Origins TV show - Sodom & Gomorrah Part 1 with Dr. Steve Austin on youtube.

[Jeremiah Jr]

Your elder sister is Samaria, who lived with her daughters to the north of you; and your younger sister, who lived to the south of you, is Sodom with her daughters. You not only followed their ways, and acted according to their abominations; within a very little time you were more corrupt than they in all your ways.

As I live, says the Lord GOD, your sister Sodom and her daughters have not done as you and your daughters have done. This was the guilt of your sister Sodom: she and her daughters had pride, excess of food and prosperous ease, but did not aid the poor and needy. They were haughty and did abominable things before me; therefore I removed them when I saw it.

Ezekiel 16:46-50

What was the sin of Sodom?
