Each generation becomes more enlightened and progresses further, and then yields to a new generation that is even more enlightened and makes even greater progress. That isn’t to suggest everyone in a new generation is enlightened in some heavenly revelation, but the number of people refusing to progress (on any given issue) shrinks steadily until they become an extremist element that nobody gives serious credence. It’s inevitable: Progress always wins.
