Speaking of religion, blowing up and shooting was justifiable, if the victims were of wrong religious denomination, wrong color or generally bothersome. People making love are just simply happy and don't give a damn about any religion... and that was not cool in any church's eyes, therefore it had to be banned, or at least made dirty.
