Doesn’t the first SCOTUS decision and the “bake us a cake” decision cover thus?

Spark is only pretending to be Christian if they went along with this. If they had any integrity, they wouldn’t have settled. They’d have shut down before agreeing to promote same-sex coupling on their platform.

You are 100% correct.

Why would anyone start a dating site in the U.S.? Isn’t there a nice Polish or Hungarian hosting company that can put the owner out of reach of these parasites?

The easiest way for a large organization to deal with a lawsuit like that is to shut down, stop paying lawyers to defend the lawsuit, file for bankruptcy, and sell off its assets for $1.

Whatever happened to no shirt, no shoes, no straight, no service?

So how much should spark lose if they were to fight instead of settle?

If they didn't have the means to fight this in court, they should have shut down the website and dissolved the business.

Just another advancement from the lbgtq activists to “radically transform” the country. They have the money, strategy and courts on their side. One thing is certain, they won’t stop there. Not until they have torn down every traditional value. Retreat is the common response now. When all the targets have been neutralized, and all that’s left are people with”outdated values”, they will be the targets.

One of their sites is LDSSingles (Latter Day Saints singles), so they’re not really Christian, anyway. Mormons, though many of them are wonderful people, are NOT Christians. It’s good to know they caved, though. I imagine they’ll seriously lose some clients, now.

> Why did they have to go along if the baker doesn’t have to bake the cake? <

That baker won his Supreme Court case. But the ruling was narrowly crafted, and did not give the wide religious exemption that many were hoping for.

So the state of Colorado continues to harass him (to this day). Now it’s over some cake a transgender wanted. And I suppose that the baker’s legal fees will eventually bankrupt him.

Christian Mingle was started by the same people who founded JDate (Jewish dating site).

Fine. Make a separate section just for Gays so everyone else knows to stay away from that section.

“the Grindr app on cell phones is specifically set up for quick homosexual encounters. “

A friend of mine is gay and he says that is a quickest method to get robbed or killed.

I thought that this was settled since the leftist Human Rights Commissions went after EHARMONY a few years ago.

Luckily, you and I don’t get to make that decision or that would be true.

Easy for you to say.

Everyone is a big mouth when it comes to the Leftist Human Rights Commission juggernauts that isolate and marginalize people and businesses.

I dont see you or any other conservatives fundraising and protecting this business from attack

Or conversely, fundraising and helping this business pay its employees and support the families as they close down.

Big mouths.

I’m offended that the site requires applicants to state male or female. The trans people and non-sexuals should sue.

See what happens when you start down this road?
