Will the drunken titty parties OR the drunken man-on-man action lead to a city's smiting, or do you have to have both? If both are carried out by sober people does it count? What about if just one is carried out by drunks? If the lubricant used is blessed by a priest does that make everything OK? What about if there's no homosexuality, but all the drunks are having heterosexual sex while mentally picturing Michael Marcavage being sodomized by Pat Robertson? Will a city be OK then? Sorry if this sounds flippant, but I've got a long weekend coming up and clearly some planning to do if I'm not going to be biblically punished by a petty, teetotal, sexually repressed deity. Wonder what He's got in store for all the <em>rich</em> sinners who got out in time? Marcavage is just not telling us what we in other cities need to know!

Wonder what He’s got in store for all the rich sinners who got out in time?
