Madrid Protest Against the Vatican

A reader in Spain sent me a note and a link to a protest that he and others put on against the Vatican for its opposition to the United Nations Resolution being introduced by France for the decriminalization of homosexuality. Here's a portion of his message to me and the video of the demonstration:

I love your blog. It's a first hand source to know how things are going in the U.S., and the strange (for me) ideas of the "Christianists" as you call them. All religious fanatics are similar and they should be very distrusted.
*
We organized a demonstration in Madrid against the Vatican position relating to the United Nations recommendation to decriminalize homosexuality. It was a cold, rainy day, but we thought it was worth it.
*
The large banner in the video clip calls the Vatican homophobic and accuses it of being an accomplice to murder.
