		<description>Thumbs down to eHarmony. They should know that gay people also have a life, they should be treated the same way as straight people.</description>

		<description>If there&#039;s none for them then I&#039;m sure there is a place for Christian singles looking for serious relationship. You can rely to them on that, right?</description>

		<description>I also agree with E Harmony with standing their ground.  If you are Gay and have problems with it then start your own. On a seperate yet relevant note. It&#039;s is not the responsibilityof the business to cater to every crybaby out there or to enforce social responsibility. That is the job of the people using the service nor more that it&#039;s Microsofts or Apple&#039;s job to enforce people to use computers in an ethical manner.  Please wake up.... People use discrimination like it&#039;s a weapon or bad thing even though it can be used as such.  Let me propose this: if you had kids and had the option of getting a babysitter from an agency or Michael Jackson who would you choose?  It&#039;s rhetorical and that is discriminatory yet necessary...it&#039;s a no brainer.</description>

		<description>eHarmony is a Christian site and they are not going to allow homosexual dating,so why are homosexuals trying to force this upon them? And why do Christians have to accomodate the world&#039;s wants and desires anyway? If people don&#039;t like it,find a non-Christian dating service!  I have to ask: if this were a Muslim or another faith&#039;s dating service,would people being trying so hard to enforce and change this? People can say what they want about it,but I don&#039;t think they would be trying this hard if it were any other faith! Every other faith has the civil rights to not be forced to change their beliefs for the rest of us! I commend eHarmony for standing their ground as it should not matter what man thinks,but rather what God says and whether man agrees,like it not does not matter. Why do you have to be called a hater just because you believe something is wrong? Believe it or not people,you can love the sinner without loving or compromising to the sin they are committing.</description>

		<description>As a gay male, I&#039;m glad eHarmony doesn&#039;t cater to homosexuals. Online dating is a joke. Great, there are people that get married by meeting online, blah blah blah. As Allan so elequently put it, we need to be prevented from reproducing ... so don&#039;t allow us to use eHarmony. We have our own sites like MySpace *rolls eyes*</description>

		<description>Most dating sites only remove &quot;objectionable&quot; postings and don&#039;t screen anybody for their religious views, sexual orientation and such.  Most sites just want our money!

On a related issue:  I contacted eHarmony to see if they had a box to check on to disclose STD&#039;s.  (I am HIV+)  They said they did not but that the encouraged their members to post this information.  I then emailed them back to ask just how the &quot;encouragement&quot; was done and they emailed me back and retracted the statement, basically saying that this would be up to the person posting an advertisement.  I&#039;ll bet if a person discloses an STD on to eHarmony they would end up being rejected.  With one out of four people who have HIV not evening knowing that they have it, I feel that it is time for this group of people to not have to be discriminated against and forced to use special (and usually inferior) dating sites to hook up.  The more out in the open the STD issue becomes, the more people will get tested.  Perhaps the question on a survey should be not just a yes or no (which often really means I don&#039;t know), but also &quot;have you been tested?&quot;  Dating sites need to show some social responsibility in the way they run their businesses.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s a private business.  They should be allowed to cater to whom they wish to cater.  If you don&#039;t like the business, vote with your dollars and go elsewhere.  Simple economics. 
     If you believe that you are owed a mate, but you can&#039;t find one that is your same sex, you are certainly capable of reexamining your sexuality.  If the need is simply to screw, go to a bar, or a singles location that fits your &quot;need&quot;.</description>
