Ang “prostitution" ay matandang propesyon o uri ng hanapbuhay na nabubuhay magpahanggang ngayon. Magmula pa ng panahon ng mga propeta hanggang sa panahon ni Jesus Christ. Ito ay naging talamak noon ayon sa matandang kasulatan at magpahanggang ngayon ay kaakibat ito ng pagbabago ng sibilisasyon.
Ano ang pakinabang ng mga taong nasasadlak sa ganitong hanapbuhay, sa kanilang pamilya at komunidad?
May nagsasabing masuwerte ang mga taong hindi involved sa ganitong kalakaran sa dahilan hindi sila yuyurakan, kamumuhian at pagtatawanan. Kaibigan dapat mo bang husgahan ang mga taong nasasangkot sa ganitong pamumuhay?
Thanks to Jesus draws in the sand for this photo. Jesus wrote, "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone."
Maraming dahilan kung bakit may mga taong kumapit sa patalim at sa hanap buhay na ito. Isa na rito ay walang makain sa hapag kainan, walang trabahong mapasukan, mga produkto ng broken families, mga pasaway na ayaw tanggapin ang mga pangaral, drug addiction ay laganap, in other words mga depressed sa buhay, walang mabalingan; mga biktima ng paghihikahos, mga biktima ng rape, spousal abuse and etc.
Ang mga nasasangkot sa hanap buhay na ito ay mga taong may pangarap na makamit nila ang magandang bukas. Ang iba sa kanila ay guminhawa at nakapagtapos ng paga-aral. Dapat ba silang respituhin, mahalin o kutyain ng mga taong hindi malaman kung nagmamalinis din or talagang hamak na mapagkutya sa kapwa?
Ayon sa Banal na Aklat, “Prostitution is the act or practice of promiscuous sexual relations, especially for money. Several words are used for a woman who engages in illicit sexual activity for pay, including harlot, whore, and prostitute. Several classes of harlots existed in the ancient world. One type was the temple prostitute, who performed sexual acts at a heathen temple. Both male and female cult prostitutes presided at these temples. Whenever Judah was ruled by a righteous king, this king sought to remove the temple prostitutes from the land <2 kin. 23:4-14>.
“A second class of prostitutes consisted of those who owned bars or inns and had sexual relations with the patrons who desired their services. Rahab of Jericho was such a woman. God had mercy on her and she was delivered and transformed. Her name is included in the genealogy of the Messiah. Jerusalem was pictured as playing the part of a harlot. But instead of being paid for her services, she paid others.”
May magagawa ba ang ating Gobyerno at Simbahan para malunasan ang problemang ito?
Former President Bush was quoted saying, "There's a special evil in the abuse and exploitation of the most innocent and vulnerable. The victims of sex trade see little of life before they see the very worst of life - an underground of brutality and lonely fear. Those who create these victims and profit from their suffering must be severely punished. Those who patronize this industry debase themselves and deepen the misery of others. And governments that tolerate this trade are tolerating a form of slavery."
