Cowardly? Sure. Offensive to the Gods? Hardly.

I can't claim to speak for all the Gods, but I think it's far more
slanderous to the Gods to assume that they don't have full control over
the gifts they bestow on mortals. If they didn't want you to defile
shrines while graced, I'm fairly sure that they'd you of the right to
defile while graced.

The fact that you and I agree that defiling while graced is something
that only someone with a total lack of honour would do is totally
irrelevant.
