CROSS RULING 'BIASED' SAY BISHOPS

(ANSA) - Rome, November 3 - Tuesday's European Court of Human Rights ruling against crosses in Italian classrooms was biased, the Italian Bishops Conference (CEI) said.

''On the basis of a first reading, it appears to be possible to detect...a biased and ideological view,'' CEI said in a statement.

Earlier, the Vatican said it would wait to examine the Court's explanation for its ruling before reacting. photo: CEI head Cardinal Angelo Bagnasco
