     Updated Scorn temples to level 120 so high level players cannot reconsecrate them and cause DM headaches.

     I believe the logic of why it was done that way was because 
reconsecrating altars in dungeons would not be a significant DM headache 
or issue. Really, I have never seen or heard of ones in dungeons being 
an issue, and also reconsecrating altars in dungeons is potentially 
useful. I do believe though that it would be beneficial if the faces of 
reconsecrated altars was changed to match how the altar changed.
