OUR RELIGION WE PRACTICE? PROSTITUTION.

Astonishing. As a professional in the computer industry, for decades I've used and heard the expression "prostituted himself / herself." Have we not all heard that?

Def: a person who willingly uses his or her talent or ability in a base and unworthy way, usually for money.

Well, what does Our Father have to say about this?
  • "Life is given, not for oneself personally, but for the fulfillment of the Father's will, which alone saves from death and gives life." Gospel in Brief
  • "Whoever wishes to come after me must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me." USCCB - NAB - Mark 8 34

Are these exhortations from Our Father what we do in our society? Prostitute ourselves is what we do in our society with all the religious fervor we can muster.
