Aineo, you posted:
Try to tell most Christians that Ezekiel lists the reasons for the destruction of Sodom and you will have a major fight on your hands.

Many Christians apply Genesis 19:5 as the reason for the destruction of Sodom, when I bring up Ezekiel 16:49 they counter with Ezekiel 16:50
Ezekiel 16:50
50 And they were haughty, and committed abomination before me: therefore I took them away as I saw good. KJV
There position is that "and committed abomination" (singular) means homosexuality since Jude 7 reads:
Jude 7
7 Just as Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them, since they in the same way as these indulged in gross immorality and went after strange flesh, are exhibited as an example, in undergoing the punishment of eternal fire. NAS
As to the balance of your reply I learned something today, so thank you.
