Then, if the younger generation are told in the far future that their views they hold now are not correct and they must change their views immediately or get called every phobic name under the sun if they don't.
This is what the older generation are facing in today's world. How hard do you think it is to go against the grounding, teaching and cultures they were brought up with.
When the older generation passes away, so will the perceptions but until then, understanding and tolerance will make bigger inroads than name calling and attaching labels.
This is my way of explaining where John was coming from.
