Brazil to U.S.: Keep Your Money

[OnyxCougar]

All I'm saying is that religion *should* have nothing to do with this.

If Brazil wants the money, they make prostitution illegal.
If Brazil doesn't want the money, then no harm, no foul.

It makes "scientific" sense to stop having sex with multiple partners and not reuse needles to reduce your risk of AIDS.

Morals and religion have nothing to do with those basic scientific facts.

Now it just so happens that Christianity and Judaism happen to believe that you shouldn't have sex without being married and you should only be married once unless your partner dies, and that your body is your temple and you shouldn't be putting recreational drugs into it.

But the scientific fact remains that abstinence or monogamous sex (and no drug use if possible) are the best way to avoid ANY STD.

So although people are trying to make it a relgious issue, in fact it is not. It *is* a strings attached offer, and they chose to decline. BFD. Keep your prostitutes and AIDS over in Brazil. Thanks.
