eHarmony blows off customer objections to 'gay' site- 'We are unable to process.. a refund'
WND ^ | 4/3/09 | staff

Posted on 04/03/2009 9:45:47 AM PDT by pissant

The launch by dating service eHarmony.com of a new website for homosexuals is creating concern among customers who were attracted to the company because of its Christian foundations, but they're not getting any satisfaction.

WND reported when eHarmony launched its new Compatible Partners website for homosexuals, the result of a settlement of a discrimination complaint brought in New Jersey.

Compatible Partners has been put online by eHarmony following the case prompted by a 2005 complaint by Eric McKinley, a homosexual, who claimed eHarmony's heterosexual-only matching service violated the state's anti-discrimination law.

eHarmony should have stood it’s ground

don’t even hire a lawyer to fight it- just go to court and tell them we don’t make such a product, sorry

Call the new service “eQueer” and call it a day. The law may claim it is discriminatory to not have such a service, but it doesn’t say it has to be marketed favorably.

Notice the homo’s never run out of money for lawsuits, or do leftists get a discount in their star chambers?

When are Christians going to take a stand? eHarmony should shut down rather than become co-opted to an evil, anti-Christian agenda. If it won't then it is at least the duty of individual Christians using it to stop funding and promoting it themselves.

The same principle applies in many other cases as well, I should mention. I don't want to get legalistic about it, but a robust faith is reflected in a robust set of choices in how we walk in our daily life. Seek the best, rather than making excuses while wallowing in the slime.

2005 complaint by Eric McKinley, a homosexual

I think they meant to say "homosexual activist" that wants to put one more business on notice that they are "normal," thereby increasing his chances to get laid.

If they keep the eHarmony site separate then what are people complaining about? They were forced by a judge to do this, their hands are tied. As long as they keep them separate then people need to just ignore the anal worshipers who are trying to ruin a good thing for everyone decent.

All hetros should go to gay sites and DEMAND they be matched up with other heterosexuals. If denied membership bring lawsuits it droves. The shoe is awfully tight when it is on the other foot.

Question #1: Are you a giver or a reciever?

Question #2: Do you like chocolate or vanilla?

Question #3: Do you want a mans man or a girlie man?

Nothing in the rules about how you match them up.

Wonder what the ToS said regarding refunds before those people signed up. As for the homosexual site, they should have been firm and if nothing else, refused service to people from NJ and let everyone know why.

Shouldn’t everyone’s dissatisfaction with this issue be more appropriately focused on the courts instead of eHarmony?

Bottom line: GREED, not principle or faith

Read the article. The point is that they are trying to quit and still getting billed.

the judges ruled that Eharmony, a private company, MUST offer gay stuff. they had no legal choice (except to maybe go out of business) thus it is not really separate, it is forced on the same company.
You should ask why the perverted activist did not just go out, and form his own EPervert site. that way EHarmony would not have to have anything to do with it.
If the perverts want sex freedom, why cant normal people be free of them? Freedom of association is the key point here. stinking judge dont understand that, but maybe said judge enjoys the company of perverts!!

i hope Eharmony appeals this ruling, it is setting another BAD precedence. then again, maybe the big Obamination will just fire the Eharmony CEO and replace him with the likes of Barney Gay Boy Frank. that will fix it seeing as Barney already has experience with gay dating services (recall Barney Franks live in boy friend running the gay prostitute ring?)

It seems to me that they could have just quit offering services in New Jersey instead of including sodomites.

Yea, it's time we give them a taste of their own medicine. Why do they ALWAYS take over something - can't they EVER start something of their own???

A few days after I spoke with Warren, Dobson responded to recent interviews in which Warren has distanced himself from his former booster. "I introduced Dr. Warren and his books -- and eHarmony, more recently -- to our listeners specifically because he was and it was decidedly Christian in nature," Dobson told his radio audience on May 26. "Dr. Warren is anxious to change that direction. So ... we will go our separate ways ... with reluctance and regret."
