An Atheist Reads the Bible - 1 - Lot's Daughters

Text taken from video info

An atheist opens the Bible, and in the very first book he finds a horrific story that the religious wish wasn't in there ... if they even know about it.


**** EDIT **** I see some Christians, with a full thrust of irony, have flagged this video as inappropriate for children. Why? It's straight out of the Bible, complete with a verbatim reading!!!

The whole point of this video is to point out the stories in the Bible that get swept under the rug, to bring to light the tales the religious tend to forget when they heap praise on "The Good Book."

The Bible is full of horrible stories where innocents are slaughtered, women are treated inhumanely and men are praised as righteous for their monstrous actions. The worse part? God sits back with folded arms and watches (and that's only when he's not raining down the wrath himself from on high).

If the religious want to praise their Book, they need to know what's in it.

TEXT: Genesis, Chapter 19
The following verses were omitted because either they were boring, added nothing to the story, or both:
9 - The angles telling Lot to stand back so they could blind the posse.
12- The angles asking if anyone else was in the house.
14 - Lot going to tell his sons-in-law to leave (I thought his daughters were virgins!)
18-23- Lot went to a different town first.
27-29- Abraham saw the destruction from a distance.
Please feel to disagree about the decision to leave these out. As long as you read the original, I'm happy. Don't take my word for it.

MISC: The children voices were likewise taken from a free sound-effect website.
