734: orgy Dec 11, 2016
The nature of an orgy is, and has for a long time been, purely sexual. It wasn't always this way, and it only gained this stigma because of Christians. In Greek, 'orgia' meant ‘secret rites or revels’, and was used to denote plenty of religious congregations. The Christians did not care much for pagan rituals, and while killing people and tearing down or re-purposing religious sites works to stop those whom are already pagans from worshiping, spreading rumors that at these orgia, all people do is have immoral, hedonistic sex would (perhaps) prevent Christians from converting.
