What criminal and civil penalties do you plan to set for fornication and adultery?

I think for those they require about 10 pages to be filled out by ten different people and then a hefty cash payment sent in along with it. Forgiveness in the eyes of the church follows.

ROTFLMAO!!!!

I'm laughing with you. And I must say that it's probably not nice, even though laughter is mostly uncontrollable (especially when home alone and reading FR forum posts), to laugh at what amounts to another person's delusions.

I believe bullion is also acceptable, if you don't have the cash;

"Now, goode men, God foryeve yow youre trespas,
And ware yow fro the synne of avarice;
Myn hooly pardoun may yow alle warice,
So that ye offre nobles or sterlynges,
Or elles silver broches, spoones, rynges; ..."

Geoffrey Chaucer, The Pardoner's Tale
