	Sorry, I can't resist.  I'm against prostitution because it:

	1)  is illegal
		Laws are set down for the good of the society, yes?
		And, although we have overturned laws (e.g. slavery)
		when our society has "seen the light", prostitution
		remains illegal.... hmmmmmm
	2)  is morally wrong
		It's immoral because it is psychologically degrading and
		against biblical (gasp!) teachings.  Is there a religion
		that supports prostituion?

	One note on the "psychologically degrading" comment.  Some claim
that some people can function normally and lead happy and healthy lives
in situations where others fail.  Sorry, humans is humans, I respectfully
disagree with any form of the above claim.
