The ban drew its strongest support from both evangelical Christians and voters who didn't attend college, according to results released Wednesday by the Public Policy Institute of California.
Because stupid people and Christians just don't get it.
What? People voted their morals? Maybe if the courts were not legislating morality people would not be so up in arms. As for the uneducated - and I am sure the left thinks, if they would just listen to "Fresh Air" on NPR, they would see the light! - remember that the California Teachers Association spent $1 million of its members' money, regardless of the individual teacher's belief, to stop Prop 8 - learning does not seem to be part of the CTA's agenda.

Again, who are they surveying and how "hard" is the data they're relying on? I don't recall filling out any exit poll forms attesting to my religion, level of education or lack thereof when I was a CA voter, nor did I provide that information when I registered to vote. So maybe they bought some church lists and called "evangelical" people on one day, and used the Watts phonebook the next?
Agenda? What agenda?

You're exactly right. My guess is these numbers are made up out of whole cloth or greatly skewed (after all, I thought it was the EEEEEVVVVVILLL, bigoted, hateful Mormons who pushed through Prop. 8, wasn't it?)
Both of you ladies are smart enough to understand what this means, right? This is laying the groundwork for "investigations" into Christian churches (just like the investigations into Mormon churches) and setting precedent to strip us of our First Amendment rights in the name of "tolerance"...
I saw the headline, didn't read it though. I knew where it was heading.
The snobbery here is palpable. I am a secular college grad and I will tell you that some of the stupidest people I have ever met in my life have been secular college grads. Re the CTA and Prop. 8, please read the following op-ed -
