The Internet dating service eHarmony, which has been distancing itself from its reported Christian foundations for years, now has launched a matching service for homosexuals.
Compatible Partners has been put online by eHarmony, the result of a lawsuit settlement between eHarmony and the attorney general in New Jersey.
The state official pursued a complaint against the company over a 2005 statement from Eric McKinley, a homosexual, who alleged eHarmony's heterosexual-only matching service violated the state's anti-discrimination law.
According to the Boston Globe, "it might be the first dating site whose owners didn't really want to create it."
If a gay site had been created I'll bet you couldn't find a judge that would have ordered it to cater to straight people.
