Christian Preschool Job
A Christian preschool in Los Angeles, California has fired a teacher who refused to drop her second job as a porn actress despite a previous warning and an offer of a pay raise in exchange for severing her ties with the adult film industry.
In an interview with Fox 11 Los Angeles, Nina Skye tearfully recalls how officials at the Christian preschool she used to work in told her that she as fired during a meeting. She asked to stop moonlighting as an adult film actress, but she is still not willing to give up on her “dream job.”
“I couldn't work there because it goes against their statement of faith that it goes against their views of fornication, like sex before marriage and that's what I'm doing,” Skye told Fox 11. “They say it goes against

She said she easily earned $2,500 during her first scene and that it was “easy money.”
However, Skye’s ties with the porn industry have taken a toll on her career as a preschool teacher. The Christian school had offered a pay raise and housing assistance under the condition that she drops her second job, but she would rather leave her teaching career.
In a separate situation, a former porn star who used to make £250,000 every year has decided to quit after 10 years in order to become a pastor in New York. For Crystal Bassette, knowing God and marrying a pastor entails a big change in her life, The Sun reported in March.
During her younger years, making adult films was a normal part of Bassette’s daily routine. However, the industry she worked in also led her to a life of alcohol abuse, lavish expenses, and materialism.
Right before she met her future husband, Bassette decided to end her job as a porn star and start living for God, saying her mind was “so messed up” and she felt that she had to escape from her previous life. After cutting her ties with the adult film industry, she managed to graduate from college, work as a paralegal, and start training to be a pastor.
Bassette is now happily married to her husband David, and they have founded the New Beginnings Christian Life in New York. They are hoping to use their ministry to inspire other people into living a life devoted to

    The ending of one’s life, terminally ill or not, should not be done purposely by another man’s hands. If such procedures were considered acceptable, every ill person with no will to continue living would try to find ailments that deem assisted suicide. Jack Kevorkian, also known as “Dr. Death,” was a lifelong activist for physician-assisted suicide. Kevorkian was said to have assisted in 130 suicides of terminally ill patients during his life and is looked at as a sick and twisted killer to many, but as a brave, respected pathologist to others. To look back on his history and past activity, is extremely bizarre and unusual; there is everything from leaving pathology in the 70’s to make a movie, to advocating for the usage of medical experiments on criminals during execution. Assisted suicide violates the Fourteenth amendment, which prohibits government from depriving a person of life, liberty and property without ensuring fairness. The act is also by a general consensus, seen as morally and ethically taboo. However, if the patients asked Dr. Kevorkian to assist in their suicide, is he deserving of the criminal charges he has landed, or should he be seen as merely a doctor obeying his patients’ wishes? The facts that present themselves show that Dr. Kevorkian’s actions were arguably unjustified.…
