It is possible to be tolerant and open-minded while also believing that there are some universal moral principles that apply to everyone.
 
  Indicate whether the statement is true or false.

Question 2

If public opinion polls show that same-sex marriage is opposed by 70 of people born prior to 1950, but supported by 70 of people born since 1980, then we have good reason to believe that same-sex marriage is morally desirable.
 
  What will be an ideal response?
