I fail to see the relevance of the church of Apicius as opposed to the church 
in the 14th and 15th century which is the church described in the Medieval 
Underworld. The Orange Omelet recipe is not Apician. Anyway, the mention of 
the Church's ownership of 'stewe houses' is not meant to be a moral judgment 
on the Church but rather an observation of what was done and a possible 
explanation of how the recipe may have taken it's name. 

As we have seen in the past on this list and other lists, dispassionate 
observation of the Church is a far better road to take as opposed to 
rationalizing or moralizing over the practices of it's participants in any 
given time frame especially given the fact that religion in general is such 
an integral part of most peoples lives today as it was then. 

Anyway. my observation that the Church managed 'stewe houses' was not 
intended to be a reflection or judgment on any particular moral attitude of 
any particular seeing as how my own spirituality really doesn't find sexual 
mores to be particularly relevant on any level that matters. :-)
