Originally posted by rogue06 View PostI would think that is mostly due to it being illegal. Kinda like how it wasn't unheard of for alcohol to be tainted during Prohibition.
ETA: To return to the topic of the thread, I am convinced there is no way to clear prostitution with Christian morality. Having said that I am at a loss as to what would make the most sense legally.Last edited by Jedidiah; 08-13-2017, 10:18 AM.Micah 6:8 He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?

I prefer a model like what Sweden has adopted. They go after the pimps and the johns and assist prostitutes in leaving the industry."I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right! Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard Ravenhill

Is there any "moral" reason for fornication, masturbation, and pornography to be legal?
If not, isn't there some sort of professional obligation for police and prosecutors to actively pursue and punish each of those offenses?Geislerminian Antinomian Kenotic Charispneumaticostal Gender Mutualist-Egalitarian.

I don't think pornography should be legal, so
Making fornication illegal would probably lead to a big uptick in abortions in people trying to destroy evidence of what they did so I wouldn't be on board with that."I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion.

I do wonder why some things that the Bible makes clear elsewhere are immoral aren't banned specifically in the Mosaic Law. (Female homosexuality comes to mind.) Maybe because they were so obviously considered shameful there was no need to spell it out? I don't know."I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion.

Originally posted by The Locust View PostThe big problem in my mind seems to be one of regulatory issues and ensuring safety. I would recommend implementing more private security and having rules enforced by private entities rather than just having it outlawed. The thing about legalities is that they ultimately do not deter committed criminals or underground networks. I'm much more in favor of establishing a more mainstream network of organizations that have to operate within certain parameters but are also given proper resources and backing to enforce safety for the people involved to minimize abuse and human trafficking. Without a shadow of a doubt there are some people out there who would voluntarily go into sex work for their own set of reasons and some who would view it as any other profession. For that reason alone I think it's always worth a shot as long as you remain adamantly anti-human trafficking and consent is always made a priority.Micah 6:8 He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?
