In general, which of these things do you consider to be immoral?

Similar survey: http://surveycentral.org/survey/267.html

By "in general" I mean under normal every day circumstances.
For example- you may believe it is wrong to hit a dog, but if you were being attacked by a dog, you probably wouldn't think twice about it. But for every day circumstances you believe it is wrong.

The things I marked as wrong are things I try not to do, wrong for me. . .what is moral for someone else im much more flexible with. I think people have to follow their own conscience. Maybe part of what goes wrong in interactions between people is when they've surrendered their moral authority to a higher power; society, god, religion.

I think some people do some of this stuff because they're too stupid to think of the consequences..

What is the basis of your interracial opinions? Do you just not like the idea (personally), or actually consider it immoral (for everyone)? I see a bit of 'the body is a temple' theme (or possibly sanctity of sex), yet no suicide listed (probably an oversight), and not much on the 'others' concern, excepting drunk driving. I take it your're a 'keep to yourself' type.

My basis for feelings against interracial couples or marriage is centered around personal experience (as in interracial experiences in the family)and often times the idea that those who would ever due it have some serious mental issues. No, I would personally never do something like that, my opinion is just "one kind to their own". I know that I cannot change it from happening of course, I would just wish it wouldn't occur, too many visible problems that come out of it. And yes, you could say I'm the keep to myself type.

Mentally ill? To risk adversity, experience a different culture, or not find different genes personally objectionable? or only because the example you have in mind was somewhat mentally ill, aside from the issue here. Do you find any other races physically attractive, say hawaiians, swedes, or portuguese brazilians? Do you distinguish between who you find attractive and who you would marry? I'm also uncertain on the gene/culture aspect.. like who would you be more likely to marry, someone of your identical genetics (opposite sex, of course) raised up till now by papua new guinea natives, or one of those natives raised as the girl next door, working in the same office even, and buying the same CD's and videos as you?
Personally, I'm generally more attracted at first glance to irish-german lasses, but I can imagine marrying anyone, and culture is more important to me than race. Personality is more important than either of those, and their spirit more important than that. Love is love. I believe we can love anyone, however, and so it does become a convenience to not have to spend time absorbing another culture, on the other hand, what better way to spend to our timeż I'm in the middle of watching a movie now about nazi/jew relationships during ww2 germany. Do you also think people should marry within their faith? I know for some people, that's more important than race, culture, or anything else.

I haven't adapted to multi-culturalism as others have nor really have any wish to do so. I mostly reject anything liberal with the exception of a few issues. It's entirely people's own choice to go and date who they wish, no denying that, but it would be something I would not choose to do or wish to know about.
Personally though, to answer your question, my opinion is that people should date/marry within their own race,culture,faith,etc. Many would find this objectionable for some reason, yet, it is my opinion and belief and no one should have the right to change that.

As long as your opinion doesn't infringe on others, you're welcome to think whatever you want. It would certainly be absurd to force people to marry out of the bounds of their preferences. I do think it's a matter of familiarity though. With more exposure to other races, I stopped giving them any thought on the matter, then with interracially married friends, that stopped striking me as odd too. The only reason I would say that some separation is good is that it preserves our diverse heritage. I'd hate to lose world languages, dances, customs, and such because we all became undifferentiable. I think it's cool to be irish and have jewish, iraqian, or native american friends. Otherwise, we should have stopped the diversity at adam and eve, two genders, heck we could have even just had two adams, but that would have been really dull.

You raise an interesting point. Also, that being part of the reason I feel that races should marry within their own, the factor of culture and heritage. I think if white were to marry white or black to marry black for instance, than that would be the best way to retain your true culture. Getting to know a guy/girl or marrying a bride/groom with the same racial background and culture. This is just my opinion on the matter. Many would agree though that multi-culturalism might effect ones own culture and heritage and to lose that after adapting to so many others.Many more would agree though that multi-culturalism is something everyone should engage in.

I don't like the word 'morality', but there are some which I ticked because I can't see any reasonable excuse for them:
Smoking tobacco while pregnant.
Hitting a child.
Capital punishment.
Corporal punishment.
Child molestation.
