The men of Sodom asked for the angels to come out
not so that they could rape them just to offer violence, and be a bit nosy. The city was destroyed not just because of that, but becauses those same people had refused shelter to the angels earlier.

I understand you're not interested, but I'm still fucking giving you the information anyway

I thought the wording was something like "Come out so that we might know them"
with know them being a common phrase in the bible for shagging.

it's only used 3 times in the context of sexual intercourse
as opposed to several hundred other innocuous references. Also in the rare occasion it's used in a sexual manner, it doesn't have overtones of rape

But if the did want to "know them"
then I can't imagine the angels being very happy about it, which makes them as rapey as Chompy. FACT!

You Lose!

New argument please!

I'm afraid you've lost Al :)
it happens to the best.

Sodom may have partially been destroyed because of the rapiness of their inhabitants, but not because they threatened to rape angels. Otherwise there's an odd dearth of sources between 0th century- 9th century that associates Sodom with gayness
