I'm sure the Jews will be pleased to hear that!
Of course the fact that the Bible was written *after* the event and has been re-written, re-translated had sections omitted for not being "religiously correct" etc isn't relevant to the discussion...

The 'threats' God made were due to us constantly disobeying and insulting Him. If your child was that rebelious, would you not discipline him/her?

Sodom and Gommorrah was "discipline"?
Sending bears to tear apart children is "discipline"??
Making people burn in hell for all eternity is "discipline"???
This must be some strange usage of the word I wasn't previously aware of.
