[QUOTE]Originally posted by Baloo: [QB] According to the Bible -- Isaiah 57:3 (English-NIV): <blockquote>""But you--come here, you sons of a sorceress, you offspring of adulterers and prostitutes!"</blockquote> This passage would seem to indicate that if prostitution is not the same as adultery, it is considered as a sinful behavior on approximately the same level. Keep also in mind, the Pharisees denounced Jesus because his entourage included tax collectors and prostitutes (apparently tax collectors were held in as high an esteem then as today). His response (Matthew Chapter 11, verses 18-19): <blockquote><font color="red">For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, "He has a demon." The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, "Here is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and 'sinners.'" But wisdom is proved right by her actions.</font></blockquote> With regard to your objection, I wasn't directly addressing that subject in the original post. --Baloo [/QB][/QUOTE]
