the only reason it's illegal is because of the so-called "moral police" - a government run by people who govern by their religious beleifs. as long as this is the case, america will forever ban this and other "immoral" acts.

Well, that, and the fact that most prostitutes are virtual slaves to their pimps who get them hooked on drugs, use and abuse them, beat the shit out of them, and sometimes kill them. Pimps tend to prey on young naive girls who don't really know what they're getting into.
The whole point of America is that it is a government of the people. I may have read more into your post than was intended, but by the way it was worded (and the quotes), I got the impression that you think this is a bad thing. I respectfully disagree. Most Americans have religious beliefs that help to serve as a moral compass. And the whole point of democracy is that majority rules. Not "Let's accomodate every splinter and fringe group with another weird idea of how things should be". That's PETA thinking. The majority of Nevada residents thought prostitution should be legal (apparently), so it's legal there. Every community sets its own standards for how life should be (ideally).
