She nailed it down there. I hate to use these kind of arguments but: Europe has more experience with it - just trust us on this one
I was also inclined to say that you'r right on the gay rights and abortion issue...I'm not sure about abortion, but the strongest party in Austria is still effectively blocking gays from being allowed to marry/engage in civil unions. But these are rather marginal issues, so I wouldn't know if any conclusion could be drawn from there to the general opinion of the people. Overall I'd say you'r right, "we" are for abortion and gay rights though.
I honestly have never heard any Euopean talking about creationism appart from when using it as a joke or making fun of it
