Can we turn this into a religious flamewar? This is why I hate "moral majority" type Christians, because of the hypocrisy. If you're gonna believe, you have to believe the whole thing.

But their unapologetically brash looks and refusal to condemn the lifestyles they have left behind have also earned them opprobrium from some corners of the born-again world. "Some Christians think we are just cheap harlots and tell us so, but to be honest we really don't care," said Ms Lobert.

Also, google only has 408,000 hits for opprobrium. The first few are dictionaries, after them and a few more pages, the results don't even seem to contain the word. And here it is in an article about sex and boobs.

From TFA:

"A lot of guys pose for photos with us and when they go home and look up what's on our T-shirts, they learn what we're about. We call it booby-trapping," explained Ms Lobert cheerfully.


Zing!

Las Vegas used to be a lucrative haunt for Annie Lobert, a $500-a-day escort girl, and Heather Veitch, a highly-remunerated stripper.

I wonder who pays her rent now. Follow the money....

We tell them that God loves them, even if they are hookers or strippers or porn stars. We offer help and advice - we do whatever we can for them."

Then why stop!

They have heard all the jokes about "porn-again Christians" but say they are happy to use their physical assets to spread the word.

The "apostle" Paul, the one who talked about women going so far as to keep their heads covered in church, would be so pleased by this method...

Fundamentalist Christians are the biggest sexual deviants on the planet. Condemning masturbation? Normal people masturbate! Prohibitions on pre-martial sex? It's been shown that the overwhelming majority of Westerners have sex before marriage. Rejection of pornography? Again, pretty much everyone looks at porn now that the internet makes it so free and easy. Sexual deviancy doesn't just mean necrobestiality, it means violation of sexual norms.

16 YEAR OLD CHURCH GIRL...
i am 16 years old and as of now, i have struggled with masturbation for a little less than two years. I've been a Christian for as long as i can remember. i know I'm not the only christian girl to struggle with this. we all have our stories, this is mine. my parents divorced when i was 12, and at the same time, my brother, a sergeant in the army, was deployed to Kosovo for a little under a year. I've always struggled with loneliness, I've ...


Go on, please.

I was going to argue some of this stuff with you but then I remembered seeing some of your other arguments in other threads. I think I'd rather watch TV.

Pocket_Rocket: [snip giant joe louis fist]

My wife and I got married in Detroit this summer (gross pointe actually was where the ceremony was held, but we had to file our license downtown) because that's the area where my family is from. Anyway, you can't use a local office in Wayne county to file your marriage licence, so we drove down to city hall and passed the giant disembodied arm thingie.

Now, my wife is not only a non-detroit native, but an Australian to boot (read: gullible), so we drive past it and the conversation goes like this:

Wife: What the heck is that?
Me: A giant fist.
Wife: What's it for?
Me: You see how it's on those chains?
Wife: Yeah...
Me: They pull it back and then let it swing forward and hit criminals in the head.
Wife: Really??
Me: Yeah but not just any criminals, only the really bad ones.
Wife: Like what??
Me: Gays and Mormons.
Wife: *eyes go all googley* OH MY GOD!

And still, even knowing I'm a jerk like that, the poor girl married me.

Mary Magdelene, prostitute by the way I read it, and the disciples asked why he hangs out with her, Jesus said all are welcome or something like that... not a direct quote, but the gist of it.

So whats up with the asshats who say sex is a bad thing, and that sex for $$$ is a bad thing? Hell I would have sex with hot chicks if they paid me! Even if they wouldnt pay me, but thats beside the point.

How about Hookers for FSM? They could dress as naughty pirate wenches.

I got a kick out of that. I did the same thing but with the old UniRoyal tire plant in Los Angeles. The facade was a castle like theme.

I'm sure groups like this make some of the more 'mainstream' Christian types nervous, but this isn't the first time a group of 'fallen women' organized themselves into a semi-independant religous group. In fact, there's always been some question as to the role of Mary Magdaline in the history of Christianity. According to some accounts, Christ considered her an apostle - equal to St. Paul. As the story goes, after Christ's death it was Paul who basically moved her out of prominence and dimished her role in the founding of the Church. Later patriarchs followed Paul's example and minimized the role of women in the Church and tended to forget that Christ was just fine hanging out with loose women and preaching the gospel all day long.

Isn't $500 for an entire day incredibly cheap? I've always thought that if you're getting an escort for most of a day or evening, and she isn't a total skank, it's at least a thousand and probably much more.

Something smells fishy.

First off, I don't know of anywhere that the bible actually says that Mary Magdalene was a prostitute. I know people assume it and always say it, but I've never been able to find it myself, or find anybody who could tell me where it says so. It says that she was once possessed by demons, but If you can find a place it calls her a hooker, you be sure to let me know.

Anyway, after Jesus saved "a woman" from being stoned for being caught in the act of adultery (not necessarily prostitution) he told her that he didn't condemn her to death, but that she should go and sin no more. That means that sex between people that aren't married to each other is considered a sin. So I guess you missed that part.

Jesus was know to associate with a lot of the sinners, but he was always telling them to change their ways and be good honest folk. So the argument that sinners aren't really bad, because Jesus liked hung out with them is really kind of a silly one.

Maybe you should learn more about the bible before trying to use it to support your argument. I'm not saying I know it well, but I grew up in a religious family, so I was taught at least a bit about it
