European Union Signs Secular Constitution
European Union leaders signed a constitution in late October that contains no mention of Christianity, despite pressure from the Vatican to include one.
For more than two years, Pope John Paul II had urged EU member nations to include a reference to Europe's Christian roots in the constitution's preamble. Several members, including France, Belgium and Finland, argued against a religious statement, citing the need to maintain separation of church and state.
