Great video! Hysterical AND true!
I've had arguments with people where I say that prostitution should be legal. The typical response is "That's awful!". When I ask why it should be illegal I get stuff like "It's degrading!" (and cleaning port a johns isn't?), "It spreads disease!" (and people who sleep around with multiple partners don't?), "It's dangerous!" (and earning a living as a coal miner isn't?), "I wouldn't want a brothel in my neighborhood!" (You wouldn't have one in your neighborhood! If it was legel, brothels could be restricted to certain areas, away from homes, schools and businesses).
I simply respond that it's perectly legal to be a slut. A slut can have sex with a different guy every night. The prostitute also has sex with a different guy every night. The only difference between the two is the exchange of money. So why should one be legal and the other illegal? George Carlin had a good line. He wanted to know why it's perfectly legal to give something away, but when you charge money for that same thing it suddenly becomes illegal.
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.
God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?
