Many of the quests in Fallout 3 have an element of moral ambiguity, and sometines don't turn out like you would expect
Tenpenny Towers. Sometimes the option I would choose is not available, due to scripting limitations
Oasis. Even so, within the confines of the system provided it usually makes sense.
The main exception that I just ran into was an (
http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/A_Nice_Day_for_a_Right_Wedding) unmarked quest in Rivet City.
Lovestruck female NPC wants to seduce a young priest, and the player can give Telvanni Bug Musk Ant Queen Pheremones to aid in his seduction. They end up married (he doesn't seem too happy), and you get Karma. Fine.Not imagine that gender-switched.
Horny male NPC wants to seduce a young nun, and the player can give a date rape drug. The end up married, and CAN IT BE FOX NEWS TIEM NAO?
Or is it just me?

You're right, it's much better to give date rape drugs to nuns than to priests.:p
Kind of makes you wonder what a negative karma resolution would look like. Break up the romance by acccusing him of diddling the Hargrave boy? Substitute poison for the drug? That's how they woulda' done it in Fallout 2. Heck, in that game you had the option to poison hundreds of random people with one well placed radscorpion tail.

The conflict involving religion is part of it - it is good to lure a man away from the church for a woman he shows no real interest in, even when Fallout 3 religion is almost always "Good" (get karma for giving caps to churches, even the batshit insane nuclear bomb worshippers).
