TER is a remarkably successful institution. It has professionalized and sanitized our hobby to such an extent that one almost forgets that there are any moral or spiritual implications to what we do. So let us ask once more, does it degrade our humanity to engage in what we do? Is it abhorrent to God? My opinion is, yes it is, at least to how I conceive God, which is an overly punitive, judgemental aspect of the unconscious that seeks to terrify and restrain the conscious self. Is there some higher form of God based on universal love which I'm missing? Perhaps, but I'll never know it, and so as far as I'm concerned it doesn't exist.

Drugs are bad, very bad. Remember that. Unless you brought enough for all of us that is.

I prefer to compromise my success and attempt kindness and patience as much as my imperfect self is able to achieve.

What would he pick a retard like you to be his mouth piece?

"Tiffany please find enclosed my 2 references, and my p411 info. My interests are sports, doing the crossword and Satan worship. Are you available Friday at 7pm?"

We have received applications from many extremely qualified candidates but unfortunately there are only a few special positions at this time. Best of luck in your future endeavors

I truly pity your kind. Since I'm atheist/agnostic I'm 100% happily fucking around without fear of being judged by deities and/or sent to hell.

Cheers to that!! My sentiments exactly.

....works for me!

But I'm sure the OP thinks that since you are a lesbian, you'll be taking the non stop express!

Nor do I believe in any God.

..or whether I'm just agnostic about it. No one has ever shown me proof it exists. LOL

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy a parody religion as much as the next heretic, but goddamn, is this some joyless horseshit.

Toot toot!!!!
All aboard!!!!!

Ol' Hieronymus sure knew how to throw a wild party!

I hear what you’re saying, “If they say this is what hell is, then ok, I choose this.” Problem is, I don’t believe what they say and obviously, you don’t either. What I say to you is (cliché alert, more coming) don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater.  

So I love the range of responses and personalities in this thread and let me take this further with a few concrete examples which I'm making up but which I think might be possible. You find a girl who is not reviewed and is just starting out. You meet her at the hotel, and when you enter her room she looks scared and self conscious. You both talk and you try to make her feel comfortable but she keeps looking away as if she's feeling shame. Do you go through with the encounter or, realizing this isn't really the right profession for her, do you "do the right thing" by walking away? Suppose you figure she'll warm up to things so you both start getting busy but even after some minutes it's clear she's really not into it and not even able to fake enthusiasm. If you take it upon yourself to see new providers, aren't you at any time liable to encounter challenging situations like this?

She sleeping on the floor next to me as I type this.

And do you happen to have a goat?

All the COOL people will be there anyway 😎

This post I will actually take seriously, but you might want to make a separate thread out of it.

I am guessing it takes more than just casual use to burn up enough brain cells to start looking for answers in a thousands year old book of fairy tales.

I'd say any credibility went out in the

second sentence when he claimed TER has "sanitized our hobby". We are all as filthy as ever and well aware.  Lol

I don't know about the rest of you, but I don't want to be "sanitized" sanitary yes, as no one likes a stinky,dirty john, but sanitized? No fucking way. It's the main reason I refuse to self identify as a "hobbyist" I aint no stinking hobbyist, I am a dirty filthy whore mongering pig, OINK OINK!!!

I don't think you can get religion by osmosis Julia.  
Don't give him a decent bottle of booze.  
Those guys won't appreciate it anyway because they are use to swilling cheap wine.  

I'll save you a seat on the "Hell Train"

I was thinking along similar lines- why in heck bother to give legs to something you've defined, pretty much, as your own unconscious, anyway? We can control a hell of a lot about how we see the world, and hence how we experience it. All of it a choice. Everything's a choice. I choose pleasure and joy.

ok it stopped.

The Biblical perspective is one of grace. People are all inclined toward selfish gratification. That is human nature. God points that out to us via the 10 Commandments. They illustrate our evil inclinations as no one has ever kept them all. Since we cannot perfectly obey those and earn by works a place with God in Heaven; God gives us his unmerited favor through his son Jesus Christ. So, Christians aren't deemed worthy by their works, but by their belief in Christ wholly apart from works. Study the life of King David. He was a man of great courage and faith who periodically gave into lust, women, anger, violence, selfishness, deceit and murder. But...he trusted God. He is called "a man after God's own heart" not because of the mistakes he made but in spite of them. In Jesus lineage there is even a provider...named Rahab. I don't think God hates us; I think he understands us pretty well.  

Personally I can't imagine caring less about what a bunch of people who believe in an invisible man in the sky think about anything.  

I'm in heaven here! I love this arena for expressing myself. I choose how I see the world, too, and I see good in everything I do. Otherwise I wouldn't bother doing it. Why waste energy on something that would bring me down?  

that religion and whoremongering could cause conflict or be polarizing???

I don't believe in any fairy tale god.  And if I did, I'd keep my religion and my sex life separate.  But fuck it, sex in itself is an intense physical and emotional (spiritual) experience.  So my religion here is to treat providers with the same respect that I want from them, and to care about their physical and emotional well-being when I'm with them...even if I am paying for a service.

Playing small does not serve the world. Be bold and know that it is not against "God". It is against controlling fucks in the name of God.

"If we are all going to hell then we are going to have one hell of a party down there".

There's alot of sloppiness here. When I say "sanitized" I obviously mean "morally whitewashed". Yes everyone parades all the nasty details of their  fuck sessions in the reviews etc. but they do not mention the momentary fear that a certain provider showed on her face when she first opened the door, or the look down and away when you try to kiss her face, or the sadness in her voice when she says she is lonely.  And no, it's not just me, I am good looking and friendly with providers. It's something about the hobby and something about their past history with hobbyists.

Then save up all your venial transgressions for an occasional visit to the confessional and the farcical representative here on earth. Divine Comedy, indeed. God! That Karen Cho, On CNBC-Squawk Box Overnight, has a great pair of legs. Sorry, got distracted. lol

I don’t believe you when you say you don’t believe because obviously you believe in the Trinity because you’ve been three different people through this thread. Just kidding. We kid because we love. (Well, we love somebody. Maybe not you, but… still kidding.)
