Most noteworthy for me is the fact that more Americans think that porn (52%) and homosexuality (39%) are wrong than spanking children (23%) and being ultra wealthy (18%).

Its completely absur that assisted suicide (35%) is almost the same as the death penalty (34%)
Doesn't it make perfect sense actually?
If you support the death penalty, it would be really fucking weird to turn around and oppose assisted suicide.
The Venn diagram of "accepts assisted suicide" should be a circle around "accepts death penalty."
implicit in these questions is that the death penalty is being applied to very bad people who totally deserve to die and burn in hell, and that suicide is when good people reject God's gift of life. So they are not the same for religious people at least. ๐
Since I consider religion to be "really fucking weird," I guess that follows with my original comment.
Makes sense when you realize that there's almost no overlap in the people who believe each thing is morally wrong.
Yeah, but its still quite funny to think about.
