Additionally, they’ve caused more problems by making a big deal over this so it ends up in the news and then the school kids and the YMCA members will all know.

The problem lies with the person who knowingly and willingly chooses an immoral lifestyle anathema to what adults should set and lead by example to children.

The problem is people have been shutting up far too long against the immoral slide occurring in the country. Not speaking out against what is inherently wrong is tantamount to condoning the act. It couldn't be a more appropriate situation to bring to speak up.

actually, in this case she has turned from working in an immoral business and is trying to live a decent life. Why speak against her now? I don’t think you shouldn’t call out someone who has turned away from sin.

Is she still performing? If so, then I agree with you. On the other hand, if not then I strongly disagree. Are you saying that once someone has done something immoral, they're now a part of the "untouchable caste" and are not to be allowed into "decent society?" Do you agree with those who harp on Dr. Laura, and castigate her for the nude photos that have been all over the Internet? Who say, "who are you to try to tell people how to live their lives, when you once did something immoral?"

The fact is that this woman is NO LONGER DOING THESE THINGS. She's obviously tried to put her old life behind her, and is trying to do something useful that will reflect favorably on her community.

Is what you're saying that once someone's done something "immoral," they're beyond redemption?

So according to you, someone who repents and turns their life around should still be ostracized and vilified for their past misdeeds? You are the Soup Nazi of sin: "NO FORGIVENESS FOR YOU!"
This woman is actually an example of what immoral people should do which is to stop being immoral and change their lifestyle.

"The YMCA has been great to me. They are a Christian place that believes that people can change. I'm sorry I had to put them through this," Tuck said.
