Why Sodom was bad, according to the big G.

Ezekiel 16:49

KJV

Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.

NIV

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.

If you pretend it was about who fucked who, you might be a Sodomite.
