In the new survey, 59 percent of American adults answered that gay or lesbian relations are morally acceptable, a 19 percentage point increase since 2001 when only 40 percent said it was morally acceptable.
Sixty percent of respondents said that having a baby outside of marriage was morally acceptable, a 15 percentage point increase since 2002 when only 45 percent said it was morally acceptable.
Of the 20 issues which Gallup asked about their moral acceptability, same-sex sexual relations and unwed pregnancies saw the greatest increases. They were also the only issues which changed from a minority to a majority of the country finding them morally acceptable over the past decade.
The other large increases in moral acceptability were: sex between an unmarried man and woman went from 53 to 63 percent, divorce went from 59 to 63 percent, and medical research using stem cells from human embryos went from 52 to 60 percent.
The only large decline in moral acceptability was for medical testing on animals, which went from 65 to 56 percent.
Freep-mail me to get on or off my pro-life and Catholic List:
Please ping me to note-worthy Pro-Life or Catholic threads, or other threads of general interest.
we already see and hear some now stating how polygamy is alright and even the other day there was a thread stating how sex with animals was alright.
These people just can’t get their perversions out of their mind for one minute, the;re obsessed and like I said.
The lefts holy grail is social issues, mention family , tradition and you will be attacked like you have never seen before.
They use the hate laws, anti bully laws to silence people, they then boycott you, mock you, demean you and ut you of of business if you stand up for marriage, family or state what the left is really doing.
The problem is that some on our side , some on here just think of their own pockets and think we should just talk spending, taxes and debt and to hell with social issues.
It’s all about being a coward or being ignorant or down right selfish.
Back in 63 they had written about how to destroy America, they said they had to destroy the basic fabric of society and family and still the cowards on our side shut up
So God is punishing the people of Oklahoma for not behaving more like the people of tornado-free San Francisco?
I don’t believe polls anymore either.
Gee whiz. We can’t even believe election results these days.
Maybe on each coast but not here in the Heart land!!!!!!!!!!
No, with the hand off God pulled back because of mans sin, Satan is loosed.
But, He (Satan) would rather harass the believer..... the others belong to him already, so he does not concern himself with them.
I always look for spiritual battle.
I live up here in in the “great” earth quake, over due, mountain blowing up state of Washington; expecting all hell to break loose sometime on this state.
This is a poll of fat, lazy people who don’t have to live in the real world.
not Galluping , already there. We know what happens when a nation turns their backs on Jehovah, they don’t last long.
As Christians we are called to be the light and salt of our society, but we have wanted to go the easy way and blend in. This is the result.
Maybe it's not too late, if we come out of our comfortable closets and start letting people know the truth of the fact that they are on their way to eternity, which is forever and ever on into infinity, in hell, and so are their beloved children.

Polygamy is not marketed by homowood and media. Male homosexual behavior is a magnitude worse than having multiple wives.

Sex with same-sex children is already a major part of the gay lifestyle.
