PopesHaveDenouncedLicensing

OfProstitutionasGreatEvil

Whatisyourjudgmenton themoralityofgivinglegal statustoprostitution?

Inthequestionofpermittingtheterribledisorderof prostitution,twothings mustbeborneinmind:Tolerationandsanction.Sanctionofprostitution,even whenindirect,canneverbe allowed;somemaintainthat tolerationmaybepermitted undercertaincircumstances fortheavoidanceofgreater evils.Thegreat17th-centurytheologian,St.Robert Bellarmine,KingSt.Louis ofFrance,andGarciaMoreno,themartyredPresidentofEcuador,didnot thinkthatinanywell-orderedstatetherewasany excusefortoleratingthesocialevil,forCardinalBellarmineurged,andLouis andMorenoactuallycarriedout,thesuppressionof thisvice.

Butlicensingor"regulating"prostitutionalways impliessanction-givesita falseappearanceofrespectability.ThelicensedsystemwasunknowninEuropeuntil1806,whenitwas

introducedintoFranceand laterintosomeothercountriesaspartofthebackwashoftheatheisticFrench Revolution.

"OsservatoreRomano"declaredJuly8,1950:"The Popecouldneverapprove theregulationofprostitutioninthesenseeffected bytheNapoleonicregime, whichinpracticemeans makingprostitutionakind ofindustryguaranteedby theStateandmakingthe prostituteaslaveofvice."
