Creeping Sharia... Or just plain Creepy?

Jailed for Sex in Mosque

Of course there's no reason not to punish people for having sexual relations in a public building they don't have any right to be in to begin with. I know if I came in and someone was having sex in my office, I'd be a little peturbed. But the idea that those involved should be punished more severely BECAUSE it's a mosque is another example of the creeping sharia going on world-wide. Would a judge feel that additional "justice" needs to be added if they were having sex in a church? Don't count on it.
John King'ori, senior magistrate in nearby Naivasha, dismissed their
plea."Having sex in a mosque is a most abominable thing to religion and only a custodial sentence can add justice to this," he said.
Also apparently Kenyan law has a specific injunction AGAINST sex in religious places. That strikes me as odd. Now i'm not saying that religious places are the proper place for copulation, but if a society is going to be secular and democratic, which last I checked Kenya claims to be) than sex in one public place is essentially the same as any other public place.

David...you might be interested to know that having sex in a radio station happen way to often. Most radio people I know have had sex in the radio station where they began their career.

I guess young interns and DJs think it is cool or something...
