It only has correlation. Why ? All abrahamic religions(Judaism, Christianity, Islam) are homophobic by nature. As education level of the populace goes down, Islamophobia increases. Why do you think Russia and Armenia are some of the most homophobic mostly christian populated countries in Eurasia ? Because income per capita is too low, and income per capita is associated with education level. Uganda is also christian and one of the most homophobic countries in the world. I do agree with you on some points, but you cannot deny no religious group take it to extremes as Muslims do. Also, Armenia just recognized same sex marriage when performed abroad. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGBT_rights_in_Armenia Education and well paid income aren't enough simply either. Just take the example of Malaysia. The younger generation is even more homophobic than before. "People over 50 years old were more accepting than younger people: 11% of people over 50 believe it should be accepted, 10% of people between 30 and 49 and 7% of people between 18 and 29." https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGBT_rights_in_Malaysia Malaysia has a 95% literacy rate and 10.5k GDP per capita. Deeply religious Christian countries like Ireland, Malta have also legalized same sex marriage. Even poor Nepal is about to legalize same sex marriage (their Supreme court granted permission for same sex marriage back in 2008 but they haven't enacted it yet) despite having only 65% literacy rate. Their GDP per capita is only $800. It's more about your mentality rather than your standard of living. All the money in the world can't buy you kindness.

As I said, muslims are the least educated of abrahamic religions. Armenia is one of the most homophobic christian populated countries in Eurasia. Spoiler http://www.lgl.lt/en/files/side_a_rainbow_europe_map_-2015_a3_image.png Malaysia has become more conservative over the years, and 95% literacy rate + that gdp per capita are not high. That gdp per capita is 1/5 of USA's. Malta and Ireland are wealthy countries. Ireland's GDP per capita is nearly $70000. But there always are exceptions of course.

There are lots of Muslim dominant nations that have a higher GDP per capita than even LGBT friendly countries. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_(nominal)_per_capita https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_literacy_rate There is not a single Muslim country that is LGBT friendly, with 10 actually giving a death penalty.
