Faith Leaders Out Of Touch About Gays.

From Times Online comes this interesting bit of research.  
Religious people are more positive towards homosexual people than is claimed by conservative faith leaders, a report out today says.

According to academics at Leeds University, faith leaders are failing to reflect what the people in the pews really think about gays.

The report Love Thy Neighbour, commissioned by the gay rights lobby group Stonewall, says that Jewish, Muslim, Hindu and Christian believers are “significantly more moderate” in their views on homosexuality than is often alleged on their behalf.
