Another fascinating article from ABC News.

Why not? Jesus was a fan of the hookers.

Bah, misleading. Should be ex-hookers for Jesus.

They'd get more converts were they still in the biz.

I can imagine the Philipines has tons of Christian hookers. I wonder what the filipino Christian gesture that equals the Thai Buddhist Wai would be

They are ex-hookers. The below quote is from the article:

"Annie Lobert is the founder of "Hookers for Jesus," and her mission is to save prostitutes; to save them from the streets and, if possible, bring them to church and to God. A one-time escort, Lobert now enlists other ex-prostitutes and volunteers from a local church to reach out to working girls on the street, in the casinos, even over the Internet."

A more realistic way of saving working women from the street is to take them off the streets and open fishbowl style massage parlours. This offers a clean safe working enviroment for the women. It also provides a comforatable viewing enviroment where the johns can view and choose the merchandise.

Actually The Eden club in BKK has the right idea. Provide the health checks at the bars

Maybe true, but it won't bring them closer to Eternal Life.

Then again the Church Jesus wants is pretty close to the action at Mia Sangori
