Subject: RE: BS: Real Non-belief/not militant
"We believe that it is essential that the notion of sex workers "spreading" disease is strongly countered. As this brief outline suggests, there is no evidence for this pattern in the UK. Rather there is strong evidence that most commercial sex is safer than non-commercial sex due to high levels of condom use and avoidance of the most risky exposures."

Maybe this is true of the UK, though I question the source, however, commercial sex is another form of abuse of women, if it's a female prostitute or male, if a male prostitute.   This data does not apply to the U.S., though, and to many countries outside of the UK where sexually transmitted diseases are rampant through prostitution.


In the States, commercial sex is not accepted generally as social or legal. I see no improvement in the deviant sadistic behavior of the "Johns" if it were.

My view underscores that there is no unifying principle for non-believers making it impossible for non-believers to be militant about any single issue. (herding cats). The only requisite for non-belief lies in the criticism of the efficacy of religion by those of many different ideas.
