Earlier today, I posted this image showing how the “religiously unaffiliated” were more supportive of same-sex marriage than any other religious demographic:
Many commenters were quick to point out that the “unaffiliated” include plenty of religious “independents” — those who believe in god and who may oppose same-sex marriage for religious reasons, but who don’t identify with a particular label — and those people may actually be lowering our percentage.
Is there any truth to that?
David Byars looked into the most recent data available (2010) and found that 80% of atheists/agnostics supported same-sex marriage.
So I present to you this revised chart:

Much better!
16% of atheists/agnostics still oppose it… who knows what’s up with that. But our demographic is more supportive of marriage equality than every other group surveyed.
That’s something to be proud of.
