eHarmony Inc, which operates a website to help singles find relationships, said on Tuesday that it settle a class action lawsuit over same-sex matching.
All claims against the company will be dismissed and a $2 million settlement fund will be established, eHarmony said, with $500,000 designated as a fund for claims by the class.
eHarmony, based in Pasadena, California, did not admit any wrongdoing or liability by settling the case, which was filed in 2007 on behalf of a class of gay, lesbian and bisexual individuals in California who alleged they were unable to use the website to be matched with same-sex partners.
HOLLYWOOD'S SICK VALUES: In one 2004 episode of ABC's "Will & Grace," a newbie lesbian crawls under the table during Thanksgiving dinner to get at the private parts of lead character 'Grace' (played by Debra Messing, far right), who was sitting across from her.
In the “mission statement” of this blog I explain that I offer all, LGBT and straight, a look through the window into the LGBT community, the issues, the successes and the acts of hate and violence brought against the LGBT community.
To show regular readers and passersby, regardless of sexual orientation, some of what is on the Internet which vilifies the LGBT community, below is the current offering at the anti-gay website “Americans For Truth About Homosexuality” which is written by Peter LaBarbera.
While many of the more popular LGBT bloggers make fun of LaBarbera about his website and writings, and in full disclosure so has this writer on a couple of occasions on two of my blogs where that is more appropriate, that is not the intent here.
It is for you, the reader to decide if what LaBarbera writes is correct or nothing more than scandalizing an entire segment of society with hate. Below is in it’s entirety the portion of the posting which LaBarbera writes his opin in a post titled, “Bill Keller Is Right: America Is Deeply Offended … by the Bible“. The caption in the photo is also the writing of LaBarbera (Note – the “emphasis” in LaBarbera’s writing is his).
Bill Keller Is Right: America Is Deeply Offended … by the Bible
I urge you to support Bill Keller and his daily “Live Prayer” programming this holiday season. This man of God has a heart for people and for this nation — which truly is in “full rebellion to God and His Truth” — like few others. I have been a guest on Keller’s show and know that he lovingly ministers to all sinners, including people caught up in homosexuality. Some one-time “gays” and “lesbians” have abandoned these disordered lifestyles through his ministry — surely lifted up by the heavenly petitions of LivePrayer viewers.
Who can deny that America needs prayer as the battle of good versus evil rages between our coasts? The other day I happened upon an old (2004) episode of the ABC comedy show Will & Grace that contained a subplot about a young woman who disappoints her male fiancé because it turns out she’s really a lesbian who has a crush on Grace, the show’s co-lead character (see photo). At a Thanksgiving meal at the dysfunctional home of the parents of homosexual co-lead character Will’s boyfriend, the newbie lesbian gets lost under the table so she can go “up the skirt” of a shocked Grace, who is sitting across from her — apparently to fondle Grace’s private parts!
Ha ha. Real funny. I’ll bet the writer was proud of himself for that classy bit of “gay humor.” Strategically-placed perverts who hate God are destroying this nation’s soul.
Who can deny that the Sexual Revolution — ushering in rampant promiscuity, the trivialization of the sacred, abortion-on-demand, the celebration of homosexuality and other perversions, and contempt for marriage — has warred against God and goodness in America? And why are we shocked that generations of American youth — influenced by a debased culture and those highly-placed pervs — are confused about biblical Truth on homosexuality, sex and marriage?
And yet I am struck by the faithful warriors like Keller, who labor well outside the politically-correct limelight, and who represent that old-fashioned force for greatness — godly virtue — that made America a unique nation. (Bill is not perfect: thankfully he got it wrong about George Bush not being reelected in 2004.) “Tolerance” and worse, celebration, of any sin — fornication, homosexuality, pornography, abortion, etc. — brings down a civilization; it is hardly some sort of “all American” thing about which we should collectively boast. (This is the travesty of man-centered libertarianism.) In fact, America’s exportation to more innocent cultures abroad of immoral “entertainment” like Will & Grace only adds to our shame.
But as in Hollywood, shame seems to be in short supply in these United States. (Although we have plenty of pride, including the “queer” variety.) Against all odds, we need to humble ourselves, repent for our excessive tolerance (including for our own private, indulged sins), and pray for God to hold back his judgment and heal our land. America can only move back toward virtue if we return to the God and start becoming more offended by sin, and less offended by biblical Truth.
God bless you. — Peter LaBarbera, Americans For Truth
