Welcome to /c/Tumblr

All the chaos of Tumblr, without actually going to Tumblr.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not CursedThis isn’t your personal call-out post.

  • No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
  • No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
  • Keep it fun and weird, not mean-spirited

Rule 2: No Forbidden PostsSome things belong in the drafts forever. That means:

  • No spam or scams
  • No porn or sexually explicit content
  • No illegal content (don’t make this a federal case)
  • NSFW screenshots must be properly tagged

If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can handle it. Otherwise just reblog and relax.

Ezekiel made it pretty clear why Sodom was destroyed:

Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom:She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen

This is, of course, mostly ignored

Quite, not helping the poor and needy was part of what I said.

Yes I was agreeing with you

It was about violation of guest right. Lot invited the angels in and gave them bread. When the crowd demanded to violate them, it was better to offer his daughters, because they were his (property), and not his guests. They refused even that, which is when the angels declared that the city was doomed.
