Me, for example.. I personally don't care if gays get married. I also don't believe in abortion but the abortion issue does not steer my vote at all. Many moderates, like myself, don't get hung up on social issues like that. I look at lots of porn and had lots of sex out of wedlock and would gladly admit it.
The issues may have different legalities but I am talking about principles. Comparatively they are they same, except you cant really strip everyone of sexual organs. BTW the correct term is anti-abortion, not pro-life.

I know not all of you think the same, which is why I directed my question to people who hold those beliefs. There is hypocrisy if you saw enough to mention it. The same way lots of anti-abortion people are pro-death penalty. Isnt one of their slogans "all life is precious" or did I misread/hear "all life is precious unless youre a convicted criminal who is quite possibly innocent and someone else wants you to die".

Both issues are hypocritical.
