Eastern and Western communities live with ungodliness: idolatry: the major crime against God: the Trinity is an obvious violation of the First Commandment in addition to idols erection even in worship places.
Western communities have transgressed the bound with their atheism, adultery, homosexuality, abortion and every other vice manner.
When one tells them this is a bad conduct, they insist, thinking they will be safe forever and live against God's religion and His books, and they deny the Next Life.

But God has decided that He will not terminate a community unless He first send them a messenger, so if they do not believe him, he will terminate them... this is the termination.
While the punishment of many kinds keeps going in all communities and at all times.. which they attribute to nature and natural factors.

One of these outstanding examples was God's punishment for the Israelite by the hand of Nebuchodonosor King of Babylon (The messenger whom they disbelieved was Jeremiah),
and by Titus the Roman general (The messenger whom they disbelieved was Jesus Christ and his apostles: Peter, John and Philipps.)

Another example was the Termination of Pompei and Herculaneum and other 2 cities in Italy in the year 79 AD... we think the messenger might have been one of the aposltles of the Christ: almost was Peter who went to Italy about the same period and died in Rome later on.

Quran 17: 15, which means:
(Nor do We punish [any people with the termination] unless We send [them] a messenger k)
...................................................................................................................................................................

k To warn them of worshiping the idols and to invite them to obey God Most Gracious; but shouldn’t they listen to his words nor work according to his command, We exterminate them according to their sins.

A warning to people:

Quran 14: 44
, which means:
([O Mohammed] warn people [of the Next life punishment, which they will face in the world of souls] on the day [of their death] when the chastisement will come on them e,
and wrong-doers will say [when they will see the death angels seizing their spirits]:
"Our Lord, defer us to a near appointment
f, and we will respond to Your call and obey the messengers g."

[The angels will reply to them:]
"Didn't you swear before that you would never abandon [your idolatry]?" h)
.......................................................................................................................................................................................................

e i.e. Warn them of the Next life punishment, in the afterlife (or the world of souls), which they will face following their death.
f i.e. Postpone our death hour, and keep us in the life of the World for a little while.
g About your obedience to which they enjoined us.
h It means: Didn’t you swear before that you would never change your religion of the idolatry which you followed, and that you would not follow the messengers, so how it comes that you now renege on your words?

“Then Jesus began to denounce the towns in which most of his miracles had been performed, because they did not repent. ‘Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles that were performed in you had been performed in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes. But I tell you, it will be more bearable for Tyre and Sidon on the day of judgment than for you. And you, Capernaum, will you be lifted to the heavens? No, you will go down to Hades. For if the miracles that were performed in you had been performed in Sodom, it would have remained to this day. But I tell you that it will be more bearable for Sodom on the day of judgment than for you‘”(Matthew 11:20-24, NIV).

Jesus denounced the towns of Chroazin, Bethsaida, Tyre, Sidon, Capernaum, and Sodom to the crowd he encountered in the region of Galilee. By what authority did Jesus judge these communities?

Like other messengers before him, he told about these plagues or destruction of these communities.. all that by receiving revelation from God Almighty: the Creator Who sent Jesus and other messengers and told them some of the Unknown fore-tellings of some future events, and God gave Jesus and the other messengers some miracles (limited number of miracles only; neither Jesus nor others can bring any miracles of their own accord) to convince people about God's religion.

If not for vices, heaven would be hell.

The Roling Stones sang that the streets of Edern are full of trash.

We get cleaner year by year in spite of the religious right wing.

Take the religious good old boys out of those sin cities and they will all fold.

Death is your ending, as far as you can know.

Enjoy every vice you can afford if you really want to help those who need it.

Be as selfish and jealous as your God is, of other people's enjoyment of life.
