Dear Spanish Church: shut up!

"Por que no te callas" asked King Juan Carlos, and the same question goes to the Spanish bishops - why don't you shut up?

If there's one thing that we all seemed to have learned not only from recent and more oriental events, but also from our own history is that church and politics don't mix well - or, more precisely, whenever they do it ends in disaster. Now, I understand that the fear of losing power drives the Spanish bishops into condemning Zapatero, but hey!, swallow it, it's not your job to intervene in the political life of the state.

Otherwise, we could just as well go back to the middle ages, couldn't we?!
