The Religious Alliance Against Pornography has been holding a biggish conference in Manila; the focus is on child pornography,
These international conferences are usually held in pleasant tourist spots, and most of the participants usually members of QUANGOs -- nominally private organizations that directly or indirectly receive large amounts of government funds. The major tourist attraction of the Phillipines is of course the large number of whores available at very cheap prices -- many of them extremely young. Now the American religious right receives very little money from the government (as yet) so I doubt there are too many US Christian rightists attending the conference. Both Australia and England have government established religions, so I expect there was a major turn out from those two nations. --------------------------------------------------------------------- | We have the right to defend ourselves | http://www.catalog.com/jamesd/ and our property, because of the kind | of animals that we are.
