Lot offers his virgin daughters to the men of the city

when the city is being destroyed and then the 2 virgin daughters sleep
with their Father and have kids to continue the family line. 
WOW! what a story.
Jesus also says to remember Lots wife. She never does get a name.
lot's name means (veil or covering).

I could address this account...............
but with some having acrimony toward Judaism and Christianity, I prefer relating a modern day account.
I live in one city and another city exist within that city.
One time, that other city was a fun place for some people and for other people, was a place to avoid. The city got over run with people some claim were really nice people whereas others claimed they were drug dealers, prostitutes, etc. Things got so bad, that instead of somebody getting shot over the weekend, it escalated to somebody or somebodies getting killed.
One day I turned on the TV which claimed multiple police agencies were involved in 'cleaning' up that city. I found that hard to believe so I went and looked for myself. There were police on foot, on bicycles, on motorcycles, in cars, in SUVs and a helicopter in the air. The police were from both cities, the county, the State and probably from the Border Patrol.
Each block in that city had at least 1 person being questioned.
Since then, murders in that city are almost non-existent. Rarely do you see a prostitute soliciting
on the streets or somebody selling drugs on the street any more.
Some people claim what happened to that city was terrible whereas others claim is was about time.
