Well Over One Million Spaniards Demonstrate for Marriage and Family

[SILVERNAME]

The gigantic rally, which was called the “Encuentro de las Familias” (Family Encounter) was held in response to the anti-family policies of Spain’s socialist government, led by José Rodríguez Zapatero. The Zapatero regime has instituted “homosexual marriage” and has mandated a school indoctrination program that teaches students to accept homosexual behavior. In addition, the socialist government of the Province of Catalonia has officially joined an international homosexual organization which previously lost its UN recognition for promoting pedophilia.

Although the government of Madrid estimated that one million people had participated in the event, and organizers gave an estimate of two million, the international mainstream media repeatedly chose to report that “hundreds of thousands” or even “tens of thousands” had come. Others claimed that no attendance figures were available. No explanation was given by the agencies, which included Reuters and the Associated Press, for deflating the official figures.

WHOA… have you guys seen this? The fact that this actually happened and so many people showed up means that perhaps, there’s hope for Spain yet, and by extension perhaps for Europe as a whole.

I have not seen or heard one word of this on the media-and I’m a news junkie! Not surprised. They’ll want to suppress this story. But I think that it happened is wonderful! There’s always hope. Maybe this will lead to something more widespread in Europe…Roanoker

Praying.

Then lets send this movement to Canada then to California, Massachusetts and the other Liberal states here on this side of the BIG POND.

“Zapatero regime” Nice to see an unbiased source there! Not that I’d expect anything less from LifeSite.

I wouldn’t be surprised if gay marriage becomes legal here in the United Kingdom soon. Like the vast majority of the population, I neither oppose it nor care.

There won’t be a change here, or in continental Europe. Thank God!

But then we get the news that abortions are skyrocketing in Spain. The two just don’t jive. More reasons to pray.

In a place where human animal hybrids are being made, it wouldn’t surprise me either if england decides to legalize sodomist marraiges.

You may not oppose this perversion but is obvious that you care, you care for it , in fact you are in favor of it, otherwise why post here questioning opposition to it?

Nice try pal, but no cigar.

I and many other oppose this perversion, as do millions of God-fearing Spaniards.

Gay marriages have been legal in the UK since 2005 (Civil Partnerships Act 2004).

As I pointed out in my post (above), they’ve been legal for a couple of years. I doubt that few people have even noticed.

I think most Europeans have learned the lessons of what happened in Europe in the 1930’s and 40’s - being permanently angry is not a good thing.

Thanks for trying to tell me what I think.

I’ll say it again. I neither care not oppose the legalisation of gay marriage, and nor does the vast majority of the United Kingdom or Europe. I may come to support it. Right now, I do not mind either way, and would not be bothered if it did come into law. I won’t be running around like a headless chicken screaming about ‘perversion’ or ‘the attack on the family’.

I posted to counter a biased article (the Zapatero government is a democratically elected government thank you very much) and the idea that we Europeans are going to change or need saving.

I’m very glad I live here. It’s a much nicer place.

Civil unions are not the same as marriage - close, but not quite.

And you’re bang on the money with your second point.

Somewhere in the Bible is a reference to being “luke warm” and being “spit out”.

The fact that you defend the homophile agenda ( by implying that places that allow homophile unions are nicer) but ridicule and mock those who are opposed to homophilia with remarks like “I won’t be running around like a headless chicken screaming about ‘perversion’ or ‘the attack on the family’”, proves that you do in fact care, that you are in fact in favor of the homophile agenda and homophilia.

It proves that you are not the neutral person you claim to be.

And yes you do need to change and you do need saving.

And there is certainly nothing nicer or nice about a place that allowd abominations like homophilia and fornication, those are in fact very awful places.

Now if they start banning homophilia and fornication that would certainly be a good step towards being a nicer place.

BTW in case you’ve forgotten its the liberal fanatics and secular humanist marxists who are running around like headless chickens screaming “equality” “bigotry” “homophobia” “gay rights”

Just a little reminder.

With the way things are right now in Europe, its obvious that many Europeans havent learned their lesson yet, they are still commiting the same mistakes as in the 1930s and 40s. They are still angry, angry this time at the faith and moral values of their Catholic/Christian ancestors.

All the goose-stepping is a real give-away, I admit, together with “My patience is finally exhausted, this is my last territorial claim on Benidorm,” fights between Germans, Brits and Swedes at real estate offices for properties near the beach.

They are still angry, angry this time at the faith and moral values of their Catholic/Christian ancestors.

You really, really don’t know Europe, do you?
