"Arizona church is house of prostitution, police say."

Arizona church is house of prostitution, police say - CNN.com

What do you think? Is there a legitimate grey area, or blatant deception?

 

[Breathe]

Most likely it's deception, trying to find a loophole in the law for freedom of religion and combining it with sex. Sex sells, religion is important to people. Combine them, charge = more money. That's the vibe that comes to me.


pros·ti·tu·tion   /ˌprɒstɪˈtuʃən, -ˈtyu-/
noun
1.
the act or practice of engaging in sexual intercourse for money.

Yup, probably that.

Vāmācāra (Left Hand Path) Tantra accepts the pancha makara (five m's: meat, alcohol, fish, parched cereals, and sex) - but they are put under strict ritual usage. Neo-Tantra is a Western ******** term for casual, spiritual-like sex and trying to make it seem authentic by taking it from the East whilst perverting its core doctrinal beliefs, it's as simple as that.

Either way, even if we do accept it as something they can do and allow them their corrupted terminology... there's two choices:

Pay for the therapy, and don't have sex with the therapists
Have sex with the therapists, and don't pay

If I pay for a private tutor, I don't expect them to do my homework for me.


My $0.02.

Not to digress from the thread topic, but on the subject of loopholes, I wonder if you can get away with prostitution by filming it and saying your producing a porn film, and that you're paying them for their acting part. If you think about it, it's the same thing in a way.

A religious porn film in a "Neo-Tantra" temple with a sex worker? Sounds almost crazy enough to work.

There is probably something that differs between prostitution and porn, though. I dunno.

Both are people being paid to perform sexual acts.

They are. I have no idea what the distinction between them would be.

Legitimate or not.....it tells me that Revoltifarianism is clearly in need of some upgrades.

Well there goes my idea of building a temple to Aphrodite.

In porn both parties are paid to have sex with each other. In prostitution one person pays the other one.

What if the prostitute gives change?

It suggested students "donate" between $6 and $33 per class. The sessions were much pricier, ranging from $204 to $650.
