Spain Becomes Fourth Country to Approve Gay Marriage


Just days after Members of Parliament in Canada stamped their approval on a bill to legalize same-sex marriage, Spain�s Parliament did the same.

The vote was 187 in favour, 147 against and four members abstained.

The bill was approved despite heavy criticism from conservatives and clergy in the traditionally Roman Catholic European country.

Holland and Belgium were the first two countries to allow gay marriage.
