Spaniards stage big protest against gay marriage

MADRID --Bishops and nuns marched with hundreds of thousands of Spaniards through Madrid on Saturday to protest against gay marriage, in a culmination of months of tension between Catholics and the Socialist government.

Sister Trinidad, a nun for 30 years, marched for the first time on Saturday: “It has reached such a point of aggressive hostility that we have to defend ourselves.”
Several bishops joined the protest – in what a spokesman had said was exceptional conduct for a unique historical situation. The main opposition Popular Party also supported the march, the third demonstration it has backed in as many weeks.

Organisers, who said the march was pro-family not anti-gay said there were 1.5 to 2 million protesters. The government said there were 166,000.
 
We’ll is it 166,000 or 1.5 million?

The MSM is very quick to headline the larger estimate when it’s an agenda they agree with.
 
CWNEWS article puts the total at around 1 million by “Neutral observers.” This estimate, comming out a day late, diminishes the news impact of the march.
 
Later they will say we were five or six…

He who controls the media, controls the masses, is the impression one gathers from reading Robert Duncan’s reflections after attending Saturday’s pro-family demonstration in Madrid

A fascinating article by a participant, eyewitness who wrote it up in English for this side of the pond.
 
We 1.5 million and it was a sucess, it was a very beautiful demonstration.
 
I fully support the Spanish protesters, but it’s rather late in the game for protests. Were they speaking out decades ago when Spain first started to slide down the slippery contraceptive slope that led to this? There’s a place for protests, but this is a battle of ideas, and it’s far from over. Here’s a strong, orthodox Catholic response to the question, "Why not Gay Marriage?": cegguam.org/morality/WhyNotGayMarriage.htm . The author, Fr. Francis Walsh, is a professor of moral theology at the Redemptoris Mater seminary in the Archdiocese of Agana, Guam USA. I hope it helps!

Exactly. I live in Massachusetts and have watched my state quickly run into the ground in the last five years. Only right before gay marriage was legalized did anyone protest. Let this be a lesson to other states and countries. Take your stand against evil immediately and don’t give it any wiggle room.

The people control the media. Unfortunately, most Christians don’t take their Christianity all that seriously.
