What did I say that was judgmental? I just pointed out some facts. I said nothing about the state of the soul of any individual--which is what "judgmental" means. Anyone who isn't disgusted with prostitution is out of touch with 50 centuries of Western Civilization, which is not just a peculiar prejudice of mine.

,,, surely, that statement in itself is passing judgement on someone with no fixed opinion on this issue, but generally well informed about other issues.

Every century of which had plenty of prostitutes. Wasn't there even a wife of a Byzantine emperor who was a prostitute?

50 centuries, Arthur?

Alexander the Great's mother was a one time temple prostitute. You do remenber those Greeks and Macedonians, don't you? The guys who started Western Civ?
