 You know it's odd there were no children in Sodom in the TV version. No 
pregnant
 women either.... Is it that these Christians are that ignorant of what their
 Bible says or do they actually make themselves believe that what is written 
is
 not what it really says?

I don't know.  All I know is that I like to hammer home the fact that God 
murdered all of those babies and children, but then saved Noah as a righteous 
man.  The implication is that the children were unrighteous sinners.  I know 
we have young children that do terrible things today, but I don't think we'll 
ever see an 18 month old tried as an adult.  The whole concept that a baby 
could possibly even have the capacity to conceive of sin is preposterous, yet 
the all merciful Yahweh sees fit to slaughter them.  And to think we humans 
feel guilty when we sit the kids down in front of the TV to get them out of 
our hair,  God simply erases them and doesn't think twice about it.
