Lots of professional thinkers make predictions for the coming years and decades so I'm going to give you one as well.
A lot of fundamentalist Christians are anti-gay and believe it's a sin because the bible says so. I'm not going to look for which chapter and verse deals with this because it doesn't really matter. People that hate or dislike gays because the bible says so are picking and choosing which things to believe. Look in your bible enough and you will find things about head coverings, eating seafood only on Friday, divorce, slavery, and a myriad other things. Do these "fundies" follow these other verses?
Even my own background as a topless bar manger let me have fun with some fundies (yes, some priests/ministers/reverends would come in and try to "save" the ladies). I would always quote my favorite verse to them: Genesis 2:25 And they were both naked and not ashamed. Then again they might have just been perverts that wanted some weird attention so they bought the clothes.
What I'm predicting is that these fundies are having children and some of them will be gay. These kids are going to come out of the closet because most of the society doesn't care and if their parents don't like it, then tough for the parents. I'm predicting that the majority of these parents are going to think "This is my kid, the kid I raised and love, I guess I was wrong about the whole gay thing." Some are going to disown their kids but I think that number will be decreasing.
If the fundies are still around in 20 decades what will they say is destroying the fabric of America?
