It was that the church was open to the public, and thus they had sex in a public place.

They should lock up the priest. Let the whores go.

@barjoe Ladies of the night barjoe, not whores, after all they are performing a very valuable service. Have some respect.

@Jolanta Whatever you want to call them, they should let them go. Let the priest have his next sexual encounter in prison.

@Jolanta Yes, given that Prostitution has, more than likely, been around since the very earliest of times when our pre-Homo Sapien Ancestors first climbed down out of the trees.
In ancient times, pre-Christian Bullshit that is, Prostitutes/Prostitution was considered to be Honourable and most welcome in most societies.
It was even ENCOURAGED as it was seen as being a service to the Community/Communities at large.
Then, along come the God/Jesus Mobsters and their High and Mighty, Holier than Thou Ideas and down goes the Prostitutes and Prostitution in to the abyss BUT, then the Vatican and the Priesthoods, Cardinals and Popes in particular 'discover' that there IS MONEY aplenty to be made by OWNING and Operating, covertly of course, Brothels throughout Rome, etc, etc.
But we are NOT permitted to mention that somewhat 'shady' side of the Catholic Religion though, are WE?
