Why is anyone questioning why any of this happened. You should not question God's wisdom. God's ways are not our ways. God rescued Lot because he had a plan. And that was to have his daughters get him drunk and sleep with him. He could have intervened at any time like he had in Sodom and Gomorrah, or when he spoke to Abraham. But he didn't. It was all part of his greater plan.

If you believe in God's ultimate plan then you must also believe that he wanted Lot to sleep with his daughters. You can say that people have free will, but we do nothing unless it is also part of God's perfect plan. His many interventions prove that without doubt. Just like any atrocity that we see around us in the world, from incest to genocide, God chooses to let it happen and we should not question it, because to do so is questioning God's Wisdom!
