Unfair punishment, I believe, is seen in every day life. While the severity ranges from getting a bad grade to being tortured to death, fairness is usually not liked by the ways of life. Torture, whether it be justifiable or not, tends to make me cringe. It's just one of those things that is, well, torturous. Even watching it hurts--I can't imagine what it would be like to have to endure such a situation. Unfortunately, unfairness is just something we as imperfect humans must learn to adapt to because no matter what means are taken, there will never be a completely just world.

Torture
God sent angels disguised as travelers to Lot's house where two men attempted to rape them. Because of sin like this seen throughout the city, God decided to destroy the town. He warns Abraham about the situation, and promptly asks God to spare the good people in the town. The angels then ushered Lot and his two daughters out of the city because they would otherwise be killed. Lot's wife made the mistake of turning around to look at the city and turned into a pillar of salt as punishment for disobeying commands.
