Why do you exclude all the women in the Book of Mormon? Wait . . . never mind.

LOL!

As for me? I'm headed to Sodom and find myself a club that serves wine all night long and holds dances by lamplight. And if Abraham should show his face in town, I'll throw his ass out and tell him to take his cult religion elsewhere.

And Zee, you're such a romantic!

Zee,

I'm moving into the gay Ilume on Cedar Springs Rd, Dallas, on Jan 2nd. Wouldn't it be fabulous if I could bring back some men of Sodom to enjoy gay life in modern times? We have so much more to offer in our time than that of the dark and dank past.

Probably Naomi, for the simple reason that she's one of the few women mentioned in the Bible that was single when she was mentioned. Well, there was Esther, but she was married by the end of the story. Also, Naomi struck me as an incredibly righteous woman, fully devoted to her faith.

Being somewhat practical, I'd probably suggest I help her go through the fields gleaning wheat with her, like she did with her former daughter-in-law. Going to see a movie after that would be nice, but to be perfectly honest I don't think Judea had movie theaters at that point in its history.

Although let me quickly point out that I'm married, so me dating Naomi is as improper as it would have been for me to have dated someone who was married. My wife and I are thinking of doing a date later on today, but other than such dates my dating days are over.

Thank you KevinSim! I'm so happy you were able to contribute despite the internal conflict you felt. Rest assured that fantasy is still okay during your married days. Maybe during your date tonight you can ask your life partner who she would like to date from the Bible. It could be fun! A marriage void of fantasy is slightly dangerous, no?

Uh, this is difficult. Since none of them believed in equality of the sexes, I'm gonna say none of them.

Key word: "believed" (past tense)

And I refuse to get into a discussion of how it would be dating a resurrected being.
