Lima, Peru, Feb 11, 2011 / 18:03 pm
A recent poll is showing that more than two-thirds of Peruvians are against abortion, same-sex “marriage” and the legalization of drugs.
A poll carried out Feb. 1 – 6 by the Peruvian Company for the Study of Markets and Public Opinion revealed that the Peruvian people “defend morality and overwhelmingly oppose these ideas,” stated a press release from the Archdiocese of Lima.
Over 92 percent of those surveyed opposed the legalization and consumption of drugs in Peru. Likewise, 76.3 percent said they were against abortion. Over 74 percent rejected gay “marriage,” and 69.5 percent said they opposed civil unions for same-sex couples.
Abortion, gay “marriage” and the legalization of drugs have been key issues in the presidential campaign for the April 10 elections.
