It’s true that there will always be some people who cling to their anti-gay bigotry. Just as there are still some people who believe in racial segregation, and people who believe that women shouldn’t have the same rights as men in our society. These people have shrunk to small minorities that have been marginalized by the rest of society. And anti-gay people are also a rapidly shrinking minority and will suffer the same fate.
