"The government had considered making brothels an exception on moral grounds, but decided that it would be too difficult to distinguish them from bars."
"The new regulations say that working in the sex industry is not immoral any more, and so jobs cannot be turned down without a risk to benefits."

The point was to make it clear to everyone that this is government sanctioned prostitution which does not allow for any personal religous/moral views. Take a look at your 18 year old unemployed daughter and tell me how you feel when they tell her to start **ing or lose her benefits. Maybe you can go visit her at "work". Hell, since its a government approved job, I bet she wouldn't even be able to turn you down without facing a discrimination lawsuit, and again, there is nothing immoral about it per german law. ( I don't think all of you realize the implications of government approval, if you don't have a daughter, imagine your single or married mom not being able to turn down such "work". Hell , in the right area you may even have to worry. Imagine being unemployed and being forced to "perform" and it ain't going to be with some beautiful women , more likely some ugly woMAN or lose your unemployment benefits. Makes me want to hurl right now. Hey but its okay, nothing immoral about it.

Now as for telling anyone or any country what to do, where have I tried to do that?
I am not claiming anything should be done about it, I am merely pointing out how different our countries have become on moral issues and that the closeness we once shared with many countries based on shared heritage and values and common enemies may no longer be applicable. We might not be able to patch up our relationship with our "allies" as easily as some of us had imagined.
As for the "Christian taliban"I have not sought or asked for any any wrath or anything else for that matter to be poured out upon anyone or any country. You are looking a little too deep into my post and imagining a whole bunch of issues you plucked from your own head. I did not propose any of the things your imagining, please re-read my post. All I said was that i looked upon this as a character test and i believe the germans are failing big time. However thats something the germans will have to fix or live with, I have not proposed anything to correct it. I am allowed to comment aren't I?
