Yes, Tyre was a major city. Yes, Alexander the Great laid a very famous siege to the city. Sex SHOULD be worshipped by all, it's not a bad thing, so even if they DID worship sex, which is doubtful, there's nothing wrong there. Materialism was the way of life no more than it is the way of life in the Western world today. They were a rich merchant city, think New York, 1000 B.C. ummm, Satan does NOT come from Tyre, no matter what the Bible says.

Sheesh, it seems people don't want to understand this, despite the fact that I've written all over the forums... The Bible is NOT a historical document, nor was it ever meant to be. The stories recorded in it are not to be used as historical facts, they are to be considered and thought about by one who seeks wisdom, not History. Please, ask any scholar, archaeologist, historian, no one of good reputation uses the bible as a primary source of historical fact. No one outside the realm of religion, that is....
