Online dating service eHarmony has agreed to create a new website for gays and lesbians as part of a settlement with a gay man in New Jersey, the New Jersey Office of the Attorney General said on Wednesday.
The settlement was the result of a discrimination complaint filed by Eric McKinley against eHarmony in 2005, which will be dismissed under the settlement agreement.
eHarmony was founded in 2000 by evangelical Christian Dr. Neil Clark Warren and had ties with the influential religious conservative group Focus on the Family.
Now, I checked and there are dozens of gay online dating sites. So why is it so important for eHarmony to have one? It’s a private service that receives no money from the government.
What’s next?
Should proctologists (doctors who treat people’s rectoms) be forced to do brain surgery?
Should liquor stores be forced to sell diapers and nipples?
Should steak houses be forced to sell sushi?
What are your thoughts?

Thay are a private orginazation who do not need goverment help so Thay should choose to put it there or not, though a resturant cannot not serve you bacause you’r gay either…
Damned if you do damned if you don’t
Is it okay if McDonald’s did not want to serve interracial couples, because that is against the bible?
If Kinko’s did not want to make copies or sell anything for a female minister, because according to the bible it is not okay for woman to talk in church, so Kinko’s should discriminate? (I hope they don’t stone her).
eHarmony was discrimination, plain and simple!
What’s next?
Should proctologists (doctors who treat people’s rectoms) be forced to do brain surgery?
Should liquor stores be forced to sell diapers and nipples?
Should steak houses be forced to sell sushi?
come on now, is that the best you can come up with?
Why do you assume that just because I’m gay I give a sh!t about eharmony or a lawsuit? I think eharmony’s ‘tarded, the lawsuit’s tarded, and your level of giving a crap is ‘tarded.
Hopefully on the GLBT section of Eharmony they won’t send members Christian propaganda.
I know someone who formerly used Eharmony, and ended up with bad matches, and a mailbox full of religious spam.
It was discrimination, in the same way as if the site had been set up for whites only and excluded other races.
your examples are laughable, they are nowhere near the same.
Your comparisons don’t make any sense. None of the ones you mentioned have to do with discrimination based on a personal, innate characteristic.
I think it is just because it is wrong they don’t have one.
I dunno really…
I don’t think forcing tolerance down peoples throat every worked, this guy just wanted what he wanted.
I’m not sure anyone could answer your question as you apparently cannot discern the difference between an apple and a cow…
its a crazy world ….it makes you think that someday thay will say that on line predators are treated unfaily …..its all so twested
This almost sounds like affirmative action for gays ??
Um…gay money is as good as straight money.
who cares?
this new form of foolishness will likely catch on. I may go sue my volkswagon dealership for not carrying pizzas and tubas next week.
