Astounding Logic of Our Day

I heard John Stossel make an argument lately that was heralded by Jocelyn Elders (Surgeon General under Clinton) years ago. He was saying we need to legalize more things so we would have less crime.
Example, if prostitution is made legal we can monitor it and keep it safe while reducing our crime rates because there is one less crime. This fails to address what prostitution does to the soul of the woman participating in it. She takes that which is beautiful and precious and turns it into business. In the mean time she is made less than human or at least relegated to rental property and dignity is banished.
This logic was espoused by Dr. Elders in the area of drugs. If we make drugs legal we will have less crime. Some people just cannot overcome drugs or prostitution so it is unfair to them to keep the practice illegal.
Well, as I look at the world, some people just don't seem to be able to overcome child abuse or wife battering. Some just can't stop stealing and a few like to kill people. Isn't it unfair to judge these people and single out their behaviors as illegal? With the logic of Stossel and Elders we could just make everything legal and then we would have no crime. If we had no crime we would be living in a paradise on earth, right?
Abortion has been legal in this country since 1973 and that has not changed the brutality of the act on the baby being cut into pieces. If there is no moral basis to determine right and wrong (as in the Bible) decisions of morality become arbitrary. Whoever is in power decides. The lack of sanity in the logic of the day is frightening.
I look forward to the day when the earth is ruled by a righteous King from the lineage of David who will institute true justice. Prepare the way! Have a say! Speak up for the truths of the Bible even if they sound absurd to the wise of this world!
