Pew Research finds "broad declines" in marriage equality opposition

Just another major poll identifying what all the other polls are saying: Americans support equality for gay and lesbian folks.  In this poll, opposition to gay marriage in almost every identifiable group of people is now in the minority, with a few exceptions.  These are the polling trends since 2004:

* Total opposition has decreased to 43%

* Black opposition is now in minority at 49%

* 65+ is the only age cohort still in opposition, but only barely at 56%

* My parents cohort is now in the minority at 47% (Mom is 56, Dad is 55)

* Republicans are down 10 points from 78% to 68% - still not a mainstream American party

* Protestants still barely oppose at 56% - where Catholics stood in 2004 before dropping 12 points

* White evangelicals dropped 7 percentage points between 2004-2008, and strong opposition is actually fluctuating - the only group to change directions.  Perhaps people are leaving evangelical denominations are joining friendlier groups and this has changed the sample identifying as evangelical.

* Only 5% of non-religious folks strongly oppose same-sex marriage

Lets not forget that 47% of Americans polled support same-sex marriage now.  Other major national polls have support at 52-58% - but all polls have one thing in common, opposition is quickly declining while support is rapidly increasing.
