Vatican launches campaign against gay marriage

Salon.com News | Vatican launches campaign against gay marriage: "-- The Vatican launched a global campaign against gay marriages"

The Vatican launched a global campaign against gay marriages claiming
"Marriage is holy, while homosexual acts go against the natural moral law "

Interesting to note that Vatican is the sole authority on definition of the following terms

Marriage (Bertrand Russel argues Christianity's goal of marriage is Fornication prevention and procreation, in that order.

Holy ( Vatican's writ rules. It can define anything as Holy and unholy by an aptly named Papal bull :o)

natural ( is masturbation natural ? is divine conception natural ? Who defines what is natural ?

moral ( Is idolatory moral ? Is child abuse by priests moral? Who defines morality ? )
law

homosexual acts ( Interesting to note vatican is not against Homosexuality but against homosexual marriages. So who defines what Homosexual acts are ? Is kissing a homosexual act? Holding hands ? Coy looks ? )

The document comes after an appeals court in Ontario, Canada ruled in June that Canada's definition of marriage as only between a man and a woman is unconstitutional. That paved the way for legalized gay unions there.
