POPE Benedict XVI consecrated a world monument to family, the Sagrada Familia church, in Spain but faced a gay kiss-in protest before he attacked abortion and defended male-female marriage.

As the 83-year-old Pontiff paraded in his "Popemobile" towards the unfinished masterpiece of Antoni Gaudi in Barcelona, 200 gays kissed to protest the Church's rejection of homosexuality.

It was a sign of many Spaniards' embrace of the changes that Benedict abhors: easier access to abortion, gay marriage laws that have enabled 20,000 unions in five years and swifter divorce. (...)

Hundreds of gay men and women couples locked lips for five minutes as the Pope passed by, breaking off to shout "Get out," and "paedophile".

2. I remember the brother to Ratzinger said his health was so poor

that he'd never be Pontiff for any significant time.... So, I guess his still being here must be a testament to having sold his soul... (Not that I needed to be convinced).
