wait, there's more



okay, so the roman catholic church stepped up their hypocricy.

The Vatican condemned the bill, which if also passed by the Spanish Senate, will make Spain the first European country to allow homosexuals to marry and to adopt children. The head of the Vatican's Pontifical Council on the Family, Cardinal Alfonso Lopez Trujillo, denounced the legislation as profoundly iniquitous.

When Socialist Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero took office over a year ago, he made it clear he intended to remove what he called the Church's undeniable advantages and make Spain a secular state. Mr Zapatero has indicated that he also intends to streamline divorce law and even to relax the conditions placed on abortion.

Opinion polls suggest that a majority of Spaniards support the gay marriage and adoption bill.

The march has been organised by the Spanish Forum for the Family (FEF), a lay Catholic group, whose slogan for the march is "The family is important. For the right to have a mother and father. For liberty".

what kind of fucking ridiculousness is this? what is this shit? the church is culpable for so many sins and they have the temerity to not only turn around and push this, they also are going against the very wishes of the majority of spaniards.

man, i hate religion.
