Does a mosque exist that openly admits gays?

Outside that, what is the next most progressive one?

To be fair, my angle is that I know temples and churches which are openly acceptive to a gay life style - I don't know of any mosques that do. So outside that, what/who is the next most progressive mosque on the planet?

I do not think that there is a Mosque, but then again I do not know of each and every mosque personally.
Try to google it, I'm sure if there is such a mosque out there that it would have been featured in at least a local newspaper

I can't imagine that any mosque in the world would accept gays although I'm certainly not an expert on Islam. When you consider the fact that gays are executed in certain Muslim nations just because of their sexual orientation it seems extremely unlikely that there's a much more progressive mosque anywhere that would be open to the idea of accepting gay members.

You are a gay muslim? Do you live in the US? Have you tried a search?

P.S. What was wrong with this link? GayandRight: Not one mosque in the US accepts gay muslims!

Doubtful he'll find one. I tried a quick search and came up empty-handed. The closest thing I could find was one in Canada, and one in Asia.
