    You are obviously reading the "edition" of the bible compiled by puritans according to their own liking aka the King's James Version.

    Get the full one. The Inclusive Bible or one of the literal translations. You may change some of your opinions on what the bible considers moral or immoral after reading it.

    Whats wrong? Poverty is linked to it. You want to see the bad side? Tell one of those girls you are going to fly them to your home. Those girls are poor this is how they live. They don't love sex anymore than you love working. they have too. Its the same anywhere. Prostitution exists because of poverty and lust. Which are you will to do? Go into a cathouse where they claim its clean but has cameras, bouncers, a cashier and a condom machine to pick a girl, or pick one off the street? Most do it because of the anonymity. And that has nothing to do with religion.

    You mean all prostitutes are prostitutes because they are poor? Don't you remember the girl which messed up the governors life? She became a prostitute in order to become rich very fast. I personally knew a prostitute which owned and rented several apartments. Some women try to find a rich man just because they want to become rich ASAP. What is the difference with a prostitute then? (except that some of them agree to be exclusive by signing a marriage contract).

    Yes she was poor alright. Poor in intelligence. Honestly who becomes a escort to become rich?
