Tried to be as tabloid as possible. Yup, a couple were caught doing the dirty in a mosque in Kenya. Not exactly sure what to say...

that's a sick sick act. how could people desecrate a place of worship like that? sex might be a natural act, but it has its place, and thats most certainly not in any place where the religion is not based on sex itself.
they definitely deserved a prison sentence, but perhaps some further lesson might also be applicable. how about 6 months of lectures from a group of celibate priests and religious clerics on the evils of sex? that ought to fix them...
That was very tabloid of you....but 18 months is a long sentence, what was the charge, blasphemy? If that happened here I really have no idea what they would charge them with. The blasphemy law in this country only relates to christianity......
It is amazing how we pay more credence to temples of wood and stone built by men than temples of the body crafted and framed by a greater being if you are a creationist, it might not matter to evolutionists.
I suppose in England, they might have suffered a charge of Outraging Public Decency in a place of worship. (I like the way the English phrase their rap sheets).
A fine for that "crime" should have sufficed, a custodial sentence is a case of the judiciary hijacked by a fundamentalist slant regardless of the religion affected.
Beats the one about the man forced to 'marry' a goat he'd been caught in flagrante with. I saw that on the BBC website and wondered if someone was having a laugh. Turned out it was true.
Sex in a holy place is a sacrilege, many will argue. I feel sorry for the couple, banged (no pun intended) up for 18 months. Still, they should thank their lucky stars they were not in a hardline Islamic country, or it'd be a lot worse.

I wonder what the punishment would have been if they had been caught in a synagogue or a church?

It is a misuse if not a miscarriage of justice.
God created sex. 18 moths ain't worth that type of shag...a drunken one at that!
You couldn't have made it up!
