As I think I already mentioned once, that's a very common (maybe the majority) stance in Italy about abortion.
A good counter example. It's curious but heartening that a country as seemingly catholic as Italy still accepts the right of others to choose differently. As opposed to, say, Ireland.
Vegetarianism is another one -- I don't think many vegetarians wish eating meat was illegal.
Yep. When people complain of the Church's influence in Italian politics, I tell them about Ireland (I studied there for a year), including stuff like alcohol sales being banned on Good Friday. (OTOH, the Church does have ridiculous privileges fiscally in Italy, among other things.)
Who the hell is downvoting everything, anyway?
Given their stated reason for not eating meat, a reasonable argument could be made that this behavior is hypocritical.
What are you talking about? The vegetarians I've met vary widely in their stated reasons not to eat meat, with many of them being some variety of "I just don't like it".
