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%).

some of these are "it depends". for example, using drugs like marijuana, alcohol, or participating in gambling isn't a moral issue by itself, but the industry that advertises and facilitates it is.

also, porn can be unethically or ethically sourced, so there I would hesitate between "not a moral issue" and "morally wrong"
