Vatican blasts Spain's gay marriage law

The Vatican has condemned Spain's gay marriage law in what appears to be the first major act of the Vatican since the installation of Pope Benedict XVI. This also represents what I think will be the first shot fired against moral relativists by our new Pope. Calling adoption of children by same sex couples "moral violence", this is a very strongly worded rebuke which is, in my opinion, of the type sorely needed. When children ignore a parent's softly spoken warnings, a firmer tone is necessary.
