The Victims of the Second Glass of Wine: Lot and His Daughters

In Genesis 9, the first glass of wine Biblically justifies Racism, Color discrimination and Slavery. Herein, the second glass of wine Biblically justifies.

Herein in Genesis 19, , the second glass of wine Biblically justifies committing adultery between the daughter and her father (Lot); a very shameful evil act that ended up with the creation of two big nations, Ammon and Moab.

The bible says that Lot’s daughter said: let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.

This Biblical story contradicts with the science, the behavior, the social issues etc.

It is hard to believe that Lot did that and he never condemned what he had done.

Also, Abraham’s family and nation were not far from Lot and his daughters.

They could go there and marry and have kids without the need to commit adultery with their father, Lot.

Politically speaking, the Bible puts the two nations Ammon and Moab down because their root is the adultery between the daughter and her father; however, Ruth the Moabites was the grandmother of the Lord Jesus.

Minded with this Biblical story, in addition, many fathers in the Western countries committed adultery with their daughters.

You smart reader is invited to read the story of Lot in the Bible and the Quran to judge by yourself which of which.

Lot and His Daughters in the Bible

Genesis 19

1] And there came two angels to Sodom at even; and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom: and Lot seeing them rose up to meet them; and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground;

2] And he said, Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you, into your servant’s house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and ye shall rise up early, and go on your ways. And they said, Nay; but we will abide in the street all night.

3] And he pressed upon them greatly; and they turned in unto him, and entered into his house; and he made them a feast, and did bake unleavened bread, and they did eat.

4] But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter:

5] And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.

6] And Lot went out at the door unto them, and shut the door after him,

7] And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly.

8] Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes: only unto these men do nothing; for therefore came they under the shadow of my roof.

9] And they said, Stand back. And they said again, This one fellow came in to sojourn, and he will needs be a judge: now will we deal worse with thee, than with them. And they pressed sore upon the man, even Lot, and came near to break the door.

10] But the men put forth their hand, and pulled Lot into the house to them, and shut to the door.

11] And they smote the men that were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great: so that they wearied themselves to find the door.

12] And the men said unto Lot, Hast thou here any besides? son in law, and thy sons, and thy daughters, and whatsoever thou hast in the city, bring them out of this place:

13] For we will destroy this place, because the cry of them is waxen great before the face of the LORD; and the LORD hath sent us to destroy it.

14] And Lot went out, and spake unto his sons in law, which married his daughters, and said, Up, get you out of this place; for the LORD will destroy this city. But he seemed as one that mocked unto his sons in law.

15] And when the morning arose, then the angels hastened Lot, saying, Arise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters, which are here; lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of the city.

16] And while he lingered, the men laid hold upon his hand, and upon the hand of his wife, and upon the hand of his two daughters; the LORD being merciful unto him: and they brought him forth, and set him without the city.

17] And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad, that he said, Escape for thy life; look not behind thee, neither stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed.

18] And Lot said unto them, Oh, not so, my LORD:

19] Behold now, thy servant hath found grace in thy sight, and thou hast magnified thy mercy, which thou hast shewed unto me in saving my life; and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest some evil take me, and I die:

20] Behold now, this city is near to flee unto, and it is a little one: Oh, let me escape thither, (is it not a little one?) and my soul shall live.

21] And he said unto him, See, I have accepted thee concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow this city, for the which thou hast spoken.

22] Haste thee, escape thither; for I cannot do anything till thou be come thither. Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar.

23] The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot entered into Zoar.

24] Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven;

25] And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.

26] But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.

27] And Abraham gat up early in the morning to the place where he stood before the LORD:

28] And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a furnace.

29] And it came to pass, when God destroyed the cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in the which Lot dwelt.

30] And Lot went up out of Zoar, and dwelt in the mountain, and his two daughters with him; for he feared to dwell in Zoar: and he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters.

31] And the firstborn said unto the younger, Our father is old, and there is not a man in the earth to come in unto us after the manner of all the earth:

32] Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.

33] And they made their father drink wine that night: and the firstborn went in, and lay with her father; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.

34] And it came to pass on the morrow, that the firstborn said unto the younger, Behold, I lay yesternight with my father: let us make him drink wine this night also; and go thou in, and lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.

35] And they made their father drink wine that night also: and the younger arose, and lay with him; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.

36] Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child by their father.

37] And the first born bare a son, and called his name Moab: the same is the father of the Moabites unto this day.

38] And the younger, she also bare a son, and called his name Benammi: the same is the father of the children of Ammon unto this day.

Lot and His Daughters in the Quran:

Lot’s nation was homosexual.

Allah told Lot to warn them and stop their evil acts but .they denied Lot.

Allah sent some Angels to Lot in the form of beautiful men.

Lot’s nation wanted to have sex with Lot’s guests.

Allah punished Lot’s nation and saved Lot and his daughters.

His daughters were more than two (at least three and may be more).

The Quran says that Lot’s nation was the first in the history of mankind to commit homosexuality. The Quran says that Allah left a sign for Lot’s nation; this sign needs serious scientists to dig for.

The Quran and Islamic teachings deny the Biblical story about Lot and his daughters.

The Quran consider Lot as a Messenger who had done his job perfectly.

The Quran describes Lot’s daughters as clean and pure and they never ever thought to sex with their father as the Bible claims.

Surah 7:80-84

[80] We also (sent) Lot: he said to his people: “Do ye commit lewdness such as no people in creation (ever) committed before you?

[81] “For ye practice your lusts on men in preference to women: ye are indeed a people transgressing beyond bounds.”

[82] And his people gave no answer but this: they said, “Drive them out of your city: these are indeed men who want to be clean and pure!”

[83] But We saved him and his family, except his wife: she was of those who lagged behind.

[84] And We rained down on them a shower (of brimstone): then see what was the end of those who indulged in sin and crime!

Surah 11:77- 82

[77] When our Messengers came to Lot, he was grieved on their account and felt himself powerless (to protect) them. He said: “This is a distressful day.”

[78] And his people came rushing towards him, and they had been long in the habit of practicing abominations. He said: “O my people! Here are my daughters: they are purer for you (if ye marry)! Now fear Allah, and cover me not with shame about my guests! Is there not among you a single right-minded man?”

[79] They said: “Well dost thou know we have no need of thy daughters: indeed thou knowest quite well what we want!”

[80] He said: “Would that I had power to suppress you or that I could betake myself to some powerful support.”

[81] (The Messengers) said: “O Lot! we are Messengers from thy Lord! by no means shall they reach thee! now travel with thy family while yet a part of the night remains, and let not any of you look back: but thy wife (will remain behind): to her will happen what happens to the people. Morning is their time appointed: is not the morning nigh?”

[82] When Our decree issued, We turned (the cities) upside down, and rained down on them brimstones hard as baked clay, spread, layer on layer.

[83] Marked as from thy Lord: nor are they ever far from those who do wrong!

Surah 15:57-74

[57] Abraham said: “What then is the business of which ye (have come), O ye messengers (of Allah)?”

[58] They said: “We have been sent to a people (deep) in sin,

[59] “Excepting the adherents of Lot: them we are certainly (charged) to save (from harm), – all –

[60] “Except his wife, who, we have ascertained, will be among those who will lag behind.”

[61] At length when the messengers arrived among the adherents of Lot.

[62] He said: “Ye appear to be uncommon folk.”

[63] They said: “Yea, we have come to thee to accomplish that of which they doubt.

[64] “We have brought to thee that which is inevitably due, and assuredly we tell the truth.

[65] “Then travel by night with thy household, when a portion of the night (yet remains), and do thou bring up the rear: let no one amongst you look back, but pass on whither ye are ordered.”

[66] And We made known this decree to him, that the last remnants of those (sinners) should be cut off by the morning.

[67] The inhabitants of the City came in (mad) joy (at news of the young men).

[68] Lot said: “These are my guests: disgrace me not:

[69] “But fear Allah and shame me not.”

[70] They said: “Did we not forbid thee (to speak) for all and sundry?”

[71] He said: “There are my daughters (to marry), if ye must act (so).”

[72] Verily, by thy life (O Prophet), in their wild intoxication, they wander in distraction, to and fro.

[73] But the (mighty) Blast overtook them before morning,

[74] And We turned (the Cities) upside down, and rained down on them brimstones hard as baked clay.

Surah 26:160-174

[160] The people of Lot rejected the Messengers.

[161] Behold, their brother Lot said to them: “Will ye not fear (Allah)?

[162] “I am to you a Messenger worthy of all trust.

[163] “So fear Allah and obey me.

[164] “No reward do I ask of you for it: my reward is only from the Lord of the Worlds.

[165] “Of all the creatures in the world, will ye approach males,

[166] “And leave those whom Allah has created for you to be your mates? Nay, ye are a people transgressing (all limits)!”

[167] They said. “If thou desist not O Lot! thou wilt assuredly be cast out.”

[168] He said: “I do detest your doings:”

[169] “O my Lord! deliver me and my family from such things as they do!”

[170] So We delivered him and his family, all

[171] Except an old woman who lingered behind.

[172] But the rest We destroyed utterly.

[173] We rained down on them a shower (of brimstone): and evil was the shower on those who were admonished (but heeded not)!

[174] Verily in this is a Sign: but most of them do not believe.

Surah 27:54-58

[54] (We also sent) Lot (as a Messenger): behold, he said to his people, “Do ye do what is shameful though ye see (its iniquity)?

[55] “Would ye really approach men in your lusts rather than women? Nay, ye are a people (grossly) ignorant!”

[56] But his people gave no other answer but this: they said, “Drive out the followers of Lot from your city: these are indeed men who want to be clean and pure!”

[57] But We saved him and his family, except his wife: her We destined to be of those who lagged behind.

[58] And We rained down on them a shower (of brimstone): and evil was the shower on those who were admonished (but heeded not)!

Surah 29:28-35

[28] And (remember) Lot: behold, he said to his people: “Ye do commit lewdness, such as no people in Creation (ever) committed before you.

[29] “Do ye indeed approach men, and cut off the highway? And practice wickedness (even) in your councils?” But his people gave no answer but this: they said: “Bring us the Wrath of Allah if thou tellest the truth.”

[30] He said: “O my Lord! help Thou me against people who do mischief!”

[31] When Our Messengers came to Abraham with the good news, they said: “We are indeed going to destroy the people of this township: for truly they are (addicted to) crime.”

[32] He said: “But there is Lot there.” They said: “Well do we know who is there: we will certainly save him and his following, except his wife: she is of those who lag behind!”

[33] And when Our Messengers came to Lot, he was grieved on their account, and felt himself powerless (to protect) them: but they said: “Fear thou not, nor grieve: we are (here) to save thee and thy following, except thy wife: she is of those who lag behind.

[34] “For we are going to bring down on the people of this township a Punishment from heaven, because they have been wickedly rebellious.”

[35] And We have left thereof an evident Sign, for any people who (care to) understand.

Surah 54:33-39

[33] The People of Lot rejected (his) Warning.

[34] We sent against them a violent tornado with showers of stones, (which destroyed them), except Lot’s household: them We delivered by early Dawn,

[35] As a Grace from Us: thus do We reward those who give thanks.

[36] And (Lot) did warn them of Our Punishment, but they disputed about the Warning.

[37] And they even sought to snatch away his guests from him, but We blinded their eyes. (They heard:) “Now taste ye My Wrath and My Warning.”

[38] Early on the morrow an abiding Punishment seized them:

[39] “So taste ye My Wrath and My Warning.”

Back to the main topic of my series of articles (1- 57); this is my question to you smart readers: “Is the Quran quoted from the Bible “?

What to do in strange vandalism ?

Our neighbor just came over and apologized for painting our light pillar at the end of our driveway, and said he would get the paint off. (we did not know he had done this) He is a man who moved in recently with his wife, and they do not like our lights, and made us change them because of neighborhood regulations. We looked, and he had spray painted silver over one of the glass panels, which also missed and dotted the black metal, blocking the view of the light from his house. (they are not that bright, and they are shielded light bulbs, with a glass and metal cover over them) Any suggestions as to what to do next?
More info- we already found out what the regulations where, and he was some-what right. We fixed that, bet he still was not at all happy. He seems to be trying to be nice, and we would like to be nice. But really, if he can get away with vandalizing our lights, what is next!! What else could might he do?

wow guy sounds crazy to me, i would go down to your local council and double check these ‘neighborhood regulations’ and see if he really has any right in his actions. as what he is doing is vandalism which is illeagal, so if your council say he has no right to act on these lights( which i strongly belive is so) u can have him fined for his actions and force him to pay for the damage…
