The sheikhs and the holy men must be taking the gaspipe over all this sin and debauchery they're letting in.

#1  I don't have the primary sources, but this tidbit is interesting, picked up from a blog: "St. Thomas Aquinas took a practical approach to prostitution: it was "...filthy and against the law of God," but that a prostitute should always be fairly paid for her services. "It is lawful for her to keep it and also to give it to charity even though it is acquired by an unlawful action...." But he also stipulated that prostitutes were bound to pay their tithes to the Church, "...only after the individuals in question have done penance."
I would have thought that splitting one's proceeds with the church penance enough.
