The men of Sodom did not likely realize that these
men were in fact angels. Its not clear if Lot knew at the time they arrived, either. Though obviously when they revealed their purpose to him, he would realize they were angels. The fact that Lot offered his daughters is reprehensible, but perhaps he knew these wicked men were not interested in women. The fact that they are described later as married, could simply be that they were betrothed and thus considered married. AS they still lived in the house with him, this seems likely. It could also be that they were in fact already married, but still virgins because their husbands were homosexual. The fact that they lay with their own father later, shows the moral degredation of living in such an evil place. As to the comment about Lots wife, the Bible is NEVER contradictory. It is divinely inspired word of GOD. Sometimes things get muddled in the translation, which is why its important to look at the original Hebrew and Greek text to get a better understanding of what is being said. Salt is frequently used in the bible to render ground unfruitful. Luke 14:34 Salt [is] good: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be seasoned?
JimeeB- not quite sure how much more detail your looking for as to why Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed. I think its pretty clear....
