I don't have a problem with reaching out, but I do have a problem with profilatizing and judgement in their professional forum. If the booth [at the AVN awards] they are setting up is used only passively to attract those interested in leaving the industry and need help then that fine. If they use that booth to condemn those working in the business and claim they are all condemned to eternal hellfire without Christ's salvation, then I have a problem. Unless of course they would be okay with antireligious organizations opening booths and Young Life and denoucing Christianity. Then fair is fair. LEB,

It's probably kind of like an alcoholic that wants to leave alcoholism behind... he goes to a halfway house in another city, to help break the social patterns that he constructed that helped keep him in the addictive mindset. His drinking/partying buddies, places, habits... all are forced to reset and recenter in a new city. Good on her, if she makes it - in the sense that she desires a life change, and is pursuing it. Good on them for facilitating it. I don't have a problem with evangelism reaching out to sex industry workers. I do have a problem when evangelism trys to start legislating morality through the political process. I can understand her desire to leave Sin City.

If Trinity wants to leave the adult industry and go to cosmetology school and XXXChurch is willing to throw some money her way to help facilitate the career change I say good for them both. XXXChurch gets the promotional benefit and that pious sense of satisfaction and Trinity gets a new home, education, and career. My problem with this whole thing is just its weird flavor towards titillation. As Ms. Kitka mentioned before JC Girls is all about "glamour poses" for the girls advertised on the site. Their fact says: "Why do you use glamour poses on your site? We designed our site to reflect the girls we are trying to reach. Our desire is for the girls to instantly know this site was made just for them. Based on Heather's experience, we know for many girls in the industry physical beauty is so important and the thought of having to change their appearance is terrifying. We just didn't want this thought to keep them from learning that God cares little about outward appearance and desires to develop the spiritual beauty inside of them." To me this is ironic, much the same way the forthcoming podcast entitled "The Holy Hottie Show." As I recalled vanity is a sin. I don't see the difference between appealing to the masses with sex appeal naked in order to further an agenda [in this case $$$] from appealing to the masses with sex appeal while clothes in tight t-shirts and tight pants to further a religious agenda. [Other than the clothes.] It seems manipulative either way, but at least the sex industry is honest about it. I have to say this sort of thing confuses me.
