What happened to "free enterprise"? Part of that deal was to do business with those you prefer to? Those that fit the clients/business model you prefer? If you don't like the menu, you go to another resturant, don't you? As for Terance's comment (11/21/08), he's right about my perception of this shinning example of the new "tolerance" definition in action. It's been cut from its proper place in the dictionary,

and pasted over the word ACCEPTANCE. That's the PC way. Acceptance by any means necessary, by the brainwashing of constant drum of the media driven pop culture, diversity

"training", and the courts with government backing it up! A real revolutionary had something to say about government, "Government is force." He name was George Washington. I see this as a misuse of our government!

eHarmony should be allowed to run their business as they want too and not be forced to include homosexuals-this is real freedom. Homosexuals have the Gay Games only for lesbians and gay males,lesbian only clubs,homosexual newspapers,radio programs,book stores,ect.,.

Wasn't New Jersey the state with the flaming governor in the closet?

And all those General Motors dealers are discriminating against Ford by not selling Ford cars too. Shame on them! I went to McDonalds today and couldn't find a bucket of the Colonel's finest 12 pieces of marinated chicken anywhere! Discrimination I say!

As a proud supported of gay rights, I think that this is a lousy idea. The basic fear of anti-gay people is having the gay lifestyle shoved down their throats. This just gives them ammo. It's not like there's no place for gay folks to connect online. e-Harmony doesn't support a site for the sort of connections I'm looking to make either, but I'm not going to sue them. It never really occurred to me to look for what I'm looking for on the fundamentalist Christian dating site. (lol at the thought, no, I'm not telling what I'm into ;-> )

I don't agree that this is a case with "chilling overtones of government meddling." This is merely how the system works. Citizen has a beef with other citizen (in this case a corporation) and sues. Other citizen calculates odds of winning/losing and decides to settle instead. These are terms of a settlement, which both parties agreed to, not government mandates.
