Catholic newspaper slams fast divorce law

(ANSA) - Rome, April 24 - Italy's big-selling Catholic newspaper Famiglia Cristiana on Friday slammed the country's newly passed quickie divorce law. "We can not consider the approval of the fast divorce law as an achievement of civilization; today, both spouses, children and the community all are poorer and more alone, in a false freedom, which becomes a solitude increasingly abandoned", the publication said, adding "it is not a solution but an escape".
    Earlier this week, the Italian parliament passed a law reducing the time it takes to get a divorce to six months from three years.
