It’s no longer news when one hear or see people having sex in public places but having sex in sacred places like the church and inside the confession box is inappropriate and appalling. Why the inside the church, why should the church and confession box be the preferred place for such nonsense? 

An Italian couple who were caught having sex in a church confessional box while morning Mass was being said have repented and made peace with the local bishop.

The couple, in their early 30s, were detained by police earlier this month after they had made love in the confessional box in the cathedral in northern Cesena. They were cautioned for obscene acts in public and disturbing a religious function.

Their lawyer said they had been drinking all night and realized they had gone too far.

The lawyer told the area's local newspaper on Wednesday the couple met with the local bishop on Tuesday night, asked for his forgiveness and that he had given it.

Yap James, they have been forgiven but do we do continue to things on purpose that would require us to seek forgiveness?
