Holland Turning to "Holiness?"

Holland is known for its tradition of tolerance or gedoogbeleid. Same sex marriage, abortion, euthanasia, marijuana use, and prostitution are all legal in Holland. Now comes word that city officials want to buy out 18 brothels in Amsterdam. Amsterdam has a legal prostitution policy with the Wallen district being the largest. Prostitution is so open that women are on display in storefront windows. That way you can see what you're going to pay for. With the city buying out some of the "dens of iniquity" for housing and businesses (moral ones I presume!) could Holland become more holy? Of course those involved with the sale of marijuana and sex can't imagine it. Ton Van den Brink says, "It'll never work. Everybody needs to go there (Wallen) for things they need." Everybody? If I visit Holland, I won't belong to the "everybody" group.
These are the days my friend.
