The “progressives” are progressing things nicely in liberal Europe. Just where the progressing ends, nobody knows—but you can be damn sure it doesn’t end HERE, for example:
Spain to Teach Children From Age 10 to Accept Homosexuality
By Gudrun Schultz
MADRID, Spain, July 17, 2006 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Spanish children as young as 10 will be taught pro-homosexual material as part of a new school curriculum, the Telegraph reported Friday.
The socialist government revealed plans last week to include teaching about the homosexual lifestyle in the schools, emphasizing the normalcy of homosexual relationships. The general secretary for education, Alejandro Tiana, said the move was necessary because “children need to learn there are various types of families.”
The inclusion of homosexual material in schools is the latest in a string of anti-family, anti-faith policies instituted by Premier Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero.
Spain’s law recognizing same-sex “marriages” was passed by the Zapatero government just over one year ago, despite strong opposition by much of the population. The law also permits adoption of children by homosexual couples.
The government has also authorized embryonic stem cell research, as well as relaxed the divorce laws.
The curricula announcement comes as a further slight to the Vatican, as it was announced just days after Pope Benedict XVI’s visit to Valencia for the 5th meeting of the World Family Forum. The Spanish government has been openly provocative toward the Catholic Church on the issue, scheduling a homosexual conference on the day before the Holy Father arrived.

And it doesn’t end here, either. From a Euroliberal Mecca of pot-smoking, prostitution and liberalism:
Dutch Court Approves Pedophile Political Party
AMSTERDAM, July 17, 2006 (LifeSiteNews.com) – A court at The Hague has refused to outlaw the proposed political party that supports legalized pedophilia and child pornography. The BBC reports that the Brotherly Love, Freedom and Diversity Party (PNVD) has received the nod from Judge HFM Hofhuis who said the group has the same right to exist as any other political party.
In late May, observers around the world were stunned by the announcement that a group of self-professed pedophiles in the Netherlands was seeking to form a political party. The announcement spurred outrage with a poll showing that 82 per cent wanted the government to do something to stop the new party, while 67 per cent said promoting pedophilia should be illegal.
The party, which has only three known members, seeks to lower the age of sexual consent from 16 to 12. They want to legalize child pornography and sex with animals. They argue that prohibitions only make children “curious” and seek to overturn all sexual taboos that are left in Dutch society.
The Associated Press news agency reports that Judge Hofhuis wrote in the ruling, “Freedom of expression…including the freedom to set up a political party can be seen as the basis for a democratic society.”
“It is the right of the voter to judge the appeal of political parties,” he said.
The Netherlands has pioneered the legalization of abortion and euthanasia for adults and infants, prostitution, ‘soft’ recreational drugs and was the first country to institute homosexual “marriage.”
