I love how mehmet cant stay away from any thread concerning homosexuality, he just cant help but have such deep interest for homosexuals.
From experience, yes, atheists tend to be much more open minded and accepting of homosexuity because they really do not have a reason to be opposing it. Most atheists are atheists through a intellectual process so they are well educated on both science and psychology which would mean they understand the nature of homosexuality much more than religious people who tends to disregard science, encouraged religious bias psychology, and of course religious scripture condemning it. however there are homophobic atheists, sometimes it has more to do with a cultural influence and honestly I rather deal with religious homophobes than an atheist one.
