This seems like nice news:
CHURCH weddings have hit an all time low in Spain.
Only 22.2% of 68,560 couples tied the knot at the country’s catholic altars in the first half of 2016.
That is a huge fall from the same period in the year 2000, when 75% had a Catholic ceremony.
Barcelona province had the lowest number of Christian ceremonies in mainland Spain, at only 10.5%.
Malaga saw the least in Andalucia, with 21.6%.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
