LIVING TOGETHER • People of faith are no more likely to be prejudiced against LGB
people than anyone else
• Four in five people of faith believe it’s right to tackle prejudice
against LGB people where it exists
• Eight in ten would be comfortable with a LGB religious leader

LIVING TOGETHER - CONCLUSIONS
• The religious people that responded to our survey did not hold
homophobic and biphobic views as a whole
• Meeting LGB people made a huge difference to people’s views
• LGB people and people of faith had a greater number of shared
experiences than they initially thought
