Our relations are morally acceptable

The Gallup Poll organization does an annual survey with the question "Do you believe that, in general, the following are morally acceptable?" They look at 19 issues from married people having affairs (7% believe they are morally acceptable) and cloning humans (acceptable by 13%) to birth control (acceptable by 90%). The big news of the poll is that gay and lesbian relations are now seen as acceptable by 58% of respondents. That's up 18 points since 2001 and is the issue with the biggest change. This change in moral acceptability translates to more support for legal equality.
