Way to tell on yourself ;)
Lol, all I do is 'tell on myself', starting with my username!
I mean, cool, if you want to outright affirm that you are a bigot that is your prerogative. But evoking the spectre of addiction to hard drugs to denigrate sex workers is a shitty thing to do, and it would lead one to believe you're not being honest when you claim you think the world is big enough for you and them both.
I'm a bigot because I think some paths shouldn't be followed and that whether "you can handle it" or not doesn't matter at all? Had I said booze would you have felt better about it? It's fun and addictive too, right? You're gonna go around in circles trying to justify your life choices/'ideology' to strangers online because anything on the topic triggers you instead of changing your mind? That's your prerogative, I guess. And it is big enough, but as long as they don't repent and try to turn their lives around, of course I don't want to socialise too much with them (this varies on what the behaviour is exactly). Like, that's the whole point of "the world is big enough for us", else the phrase would be "my house/immediate circle", lol.
You started this discussion saying "it's reasonable" but you're unwilling to give any reasons beyond "I believe it is sinful". Instead of engaging with any of the positions I put forward, you went on a tangent about crack without saying why it is at all similar or why it would be morally wrong even if it were. I don't believe you're stupid enough to think that that really carries any logical weight as an argument, so yeah, the only remaining conclusion I can make is that it's bigotry instead.
