Faith and Facts

It appears eHarmony will have to change their entire business model in the face of lawsuits charging them with discrimination. eHarmony has been sued by a lesbian woman seeking to be matched with another women as well as a married man seeking an adulterous match. The latest lawsuit is a class-action suit in … California.

Neil Clark Warren, company founder, has repeatedly stated that he did not know enough about homosexual relationships to confidently match people together.

To be clear: The company never refused to do business with anyone. Their great “sin” was not providing a specialized service that litigious gay people demanded they provide. This case is akin to a meat-eater suing a vegetarian restaurant for not offering him a ribeye or a female patient suing a vasectomy doctor for not providing her hysterectomy services.

As fringe groups continue to demand not only the opportunity to make their own lifestyle choices but actually cram them down the throats of the rest of us, our “Great Society” will suffer.

…Under terms of the agreement with the New Jersey attorney general’s office, eHarmony Inc. will start the service, called Compatible Partners, by March 31.

“With the launch of the Compatible Partners site, our policy is to welcome all single individuals who are genuinely seeking long-term relationships,” said Antone Johnson, eHarmony vice president of legal affairs.

The company and its founder, Neil Clark Warren, admit no wrongdoing or liability.

“Even though we believed that the complaint resulted from an unfair characterization of our business, we ultimately decided it was best to settle this case with the attorney general, since litigation outcomes can be unpredictable,” eHarmony attorney Theodore B. Olson said.

Ted Olsen is a great defense attorney so he must think thank this settlement is best that can be attained. I am surprised that they did not take the case to trial but do not know all the details.

I continue to advocate Christian marriage as the standard which benefits our society most as well as honoring Scripture.
