Melech 9,900 Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 A poll conducted ahead of Friday’s Tel Aviv Gay Pride Parade shows a high level of public support for establishing legal marriage or registration for same sex couples in Israel. According to the poll conducted by the Smith Polling Institute for the Hiddush pluralism group, 76 percent of the Jewish Israeli public support the establishment of some form of marriage for gay couples. This represents a significant jump in support since Hiddush’s last poll in September last year, which found that 64% of the Jewish public was in favor of same sex marriage. Notably, the new survey showed that 16% of haredi respondents said that gay partners should be given the option of registering as a couple, while 31% of haredim polled said that such partnerships should be given the same rights as heterosexual couples, although 58% said homosexual partners should not be able to marry or register in any way. Among the general Jewish public however, strong support was shown for the rights of gay couples, with 75% of those polled saying samesex partnerships should be afforded all the rights given to heterosexual couples, while 5% said “most” of these rights should be given to gay couples." http://m.jpost.com/Israel-News/Poll-76-percent-of-Jewish-Israelis-support-same-sex-marriage-or-civil-unions-455653#article=6020Q0MwQzVGQzQ0RkE0NDVDMEQwNTMyMUZGNUQxREUzRjg= I love hiw many people get so open Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They usually really religious and against it. I thought more would be against it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
