Not just that, but they got him drunk and raped him in a cave.
I can't tell if you are just trying to trick me into reading the bible to find out about all the degenerate shit in there.
No bamboozle. It's really that fucked up
31 And the firstborn said unto the younger, Our father is old, and there is not a man in the earth to come in unto us after the manner of all the earth:
32 Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.
33 And they made their father drink wine that night: and the firstborn went in, and lay with her father; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.
34 And it came to pass on the morrow, that the firstborn said unto the younger, Behold, I lay yesternight with my father: let us make him drink wine this night also; and go thou in, and lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.
35 And they made their father drink wine that night also: and the younger arose, and lay with him; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.
36 Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child by their father.
so, like, being a daughter does not qualify?
There's also a song in it that celebrates Israelite soldiers killing babies by bashing their heads against rocks.
But you know, god told them to do it so clearly it was a good, moral thing to do.
Infanticide must be moral and good, as this is hardly the only example in the Bible.
Is that fairly new song then?
Remember a few months ago when conservatives in America were banning books due to violence and sexual tones? Yeah someone submitted the bible and it unsurprising got banned due to numerous passages not just having such themes but glorifying them. If any book should not be around children due to sex and violence the bible should absolutely top that list. If you wanted to make a true to source material series on the Bible, getting it rated R would require serious cuts and revisions, and a totally accurate adaption would easily be NC-17
i want to see that Bible tv show. with zero censoring or changes
No and it gets worse
Nah it's true
r crumb even illustrated it really amazing well
Yeah, but that’s just the kind of thing that a guy who forcibly raped his daughters would say.
They got me drunk and took advantage of me...
Yeah. The story served as propaganda against two of Judah's neighboring countries. It claimed that each were descended from incest.

Boy I'm showing my age on this one. I miss the Newgrounds cock though.
Satan's Guide to the Bible is new and fresh though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z8j3HvmgpYc
