Meanings of religious prostitution in English

To dispatch all such cases under the mere term " religious prostitution" is no explanation.

Some have even waited three or four years in the precinct. The demoralizing tendency of this religious prostitution can scarcely be overrated.

Gradually, however, and when prostitution became an organized institution under priestly influence, religious prostitution developed utilitarian sides, thus helping to increase public revenue.

Religious prostitution and theological licentiousness prevailed also in Persia, Babylonia, Egypt, and other ancient civilized countries.
