The owner of online dating site ChristianMingle.com has agreed to let gay and lesbian users search for same-sex matches under a judge-approved settlement of discrimination claims.
Two gay men filed class-actions claims against Spark Networks Inc. in California courts in 2013 alleging that ChristianMingle.com and several other sites in the company’s portfolio of niche dating services excluded users looking to meet singles of the same sex.
ChristianMingle, billed as the largest online community for Christian singles, required new users to specify whether they’re a man seeking a woman or a woman seeking a man. The lead plaintiffs, two gay men who tried using it, claimed that the limited options violated California’s anti-discrimination law.
Known as the Unruh Civil Rights Act, the state law requires “business establishments” to offer “full and equal accommodations” to people regardless of their sexual orientation.
Under the agreement, the gateway homepages now ask just whether a user is a “man” or a “woman.” Spark Networks agreed that within two years, it would adjust other searching and profile features to give gay and lesbian singles a more tailored experience.
The terms approved by a state judge on Monday also apply to other Spark sites — including CatholicMingle.com, AdventistSinglesConnection.com and BlackSingles.com — that had operated in the same way.

“Why is it limited to ‘singles’???”
LOL. Evidently there’s no lie detector test required. A niece of mine signed up on that site, but gave up after the first 4 who responded all turned out to be married guys.
If they’re saved, though, sooner or later it’s going to come home to them that “gay” is the wrong way to get love, in fact it’s the devil taking evil advantage of some of their most tender needs. The question isn’t one of whether, but when.
dilligaf? if they ain’t islam filth or rapists, dilligaf?
End times approaching.
Why don’t the gays create their own dating service and exclude Christians?
Dunno, maybe IslamicFilthMingle will be next? Then you’ll look like you gaf.
It’s a kind of parasitic infatuation. They need to embroil society in it to get the maximum buzz. Ain’t the way it used to be, but a few firebrands led them forward into Brave New Territory.

This is absolutely ridiculous. There are a plethora of dating sites that cater to same sex relationships or that are open to both kinds of relationships. This is a Christian dating site, and the owners of the site want to facilitate Christian relationships. According to the Bible, being in a homosexual relationship is a sin. Why would they want to join this Christian dating site anyway knowing how the owners espouse that Biblical teaching? This isn’t about dating or being offended; this is about attacking and sticking it to a Christian site. I dare them to try this with a Muslim dating site. I dare them. Force the Muslims to change their dating sites.
You cannot buy or sell unless you worship the beast... You will cater to the gaystapo’s requirements or you will be destroyed financially through lawfare.
This so doesn’t make sense to me—are gay bar owners also forced to operate a hetero bar?
Here’s the key:
“Spark Networks agreed to pay each plaintiff $9,000 each and $450,000 in attorneys’ fees to the two men’s lawyers.”
Also, why didn’t the owners simply exclude Californians from using the site?
They should agree to take gay people but only set them up with Hetero dates.
You’re correct, and here’s another way to state it:
The primary task of a “Christian group” is to bring people to a state of grace, to draw them away from mortal sin.
So, here’s what really happened:
ChristianMingle just surrendered that mission, and empowered the devil.
Wrong! They are coming to kill you. Not just bankrupt you. This is the cultural and legal brick wall being built at the end of your street, only its not 1944 Warsaw. Do not sleep. Return to the Torah life. Trust in Messiah and walk in his path. And live.

The test case is how well such musselmen prayer rooms are received at Jewish and Hindu temples ...
Christian Mingle isn’t Christian and they should now be shunned by any who consider themselves to be Christian. Why they don’t tell 5he court, explicitly, to go to hell, I can’t understand.
Does blackpeoplemeet have to allow non-blacks?
A friend who used a Catholic dating site was disgusted when he met an abortion supporter there; kinda defeats the purpose...
I’ve told my children for years that Obama serves the Devil; these lawsuits vindicate that position.
