Goths confess to having sex in church
Relevant offers
Two Italian Goths have been charged by police after they were found having sex in a church confessional.
The Italian ANSA news agency said a man and woman were arrested after a parishioner attending mass at the cathedral in the northern city of Cesena phoned police.
The churchgoer heard "rustling and groaning" coming from inside a confessional and pulled back the curtains to reveal a Goth-rock couple engaged in oral sex.
ANSA quoted the pair - a 31-year-old labourer and a 32-year-old teacher - as saying: "We are atheists and for us, having sex in church is like doing it any other place."
However, church officials don't see it the same way.
Bishop Antonio Lanfranchi of Cesena-Sarsina called the couple's behaviour "an outrage of notable proportions which bespeaks unutterable squalor'.
A purification ceremony would be held to cleanse the confessional.
