to Slavestate: you can't do the shrines over again - it's a one time deal. But what you can do is leave all your party members at various inns, go to blackthorne's castle ALONE and get caught. You'll be tortured, and if you give him the mantra of the shrine he asks for, he'll destroy the shrine. Then, after you've escaped, you can go to the shrine, and Yell the word of power for the dungeon that corresponds w/ the shrine that's been destroyed. This will fix the shrine, and you'll get tons of karma for it. This can only be done once for each shrine as well though.

Want an easier way to raise karma? Go to the beggar in Minoc and talk to him, give him coins, and leave town. Repeat that, and you'll get 1 karma every time you do it.

And yes, the cheat room on the bottom of the castle is considered stealing.
One last thing, if you don't leave all your party members at the inn before going to Blackthorn's castle, he'll permanently kill one of them. So make sure you don't forget that step! (unless you just have Sadj in your party - then it's perfectly ok to head out there! >:) )
