I sat in a meeting once (at a church) some years ago regarding LGTB inclusion. At first, I held out little hope for anything usable to happen but was amazingly surprised.

Though their beliefs may not have changed, they also realized the importance of supporting everybody in the community. They begin to see that below the labels they might toss at each other, there was still a person. It was a start.
