Pope Benedict XVI defended traditional families and the rights of the unborn yesterday (November 7, 2010), directly attacking Spanish laws that allow gay marriage, fast-track divorce, and easier access to abortions, as he dedicated Barcelona's iconic basilica, the Sagrada Familia.
As he headed to the basilica, about 200 gays and lesbians staged a "kiss-in" to protest his visit and church policies that consider homosexual acts "intrinsically disordered," according to the Huffington Post website.
On the other hand, some 250,000 people came out to cheer the pope and watch as he formally inaugurated Barcelona's newest basilica -- an architectural marvel still unfinished after more than 100 years of construction.
