When you examine the profile for the New Jersey’s Attorney General Director for discrimination issues (Mr. Vespa-Papaleo), a lot gets explained about why Eric McKinley was even allowed to use the system to harrass eHarmony in such a grotesque way:

Mr. Vespa-Papaleo serves as Executive Director of the New Jersey Commission on Civil Rights. He is on the Executive Board of the GLBT Rights and Labor and Employment Law Sections of the New Jersey State Bar Association. In June 2007 he was elected Chairman of the New Jersey Civil Union Review Commission, following his work on amending state law to provide legal protections for sexual and gender minorities. Director Vespa-Papaleo is a member of the New Jersey State Bar Association, and the Lesbian and Gay Lawyers Association.

Born in Puerto La Cruz, Venezuela, Director Vespa-Papaleo became a naturalized citizen of the United States in 1988. A resident of Bergen County, New Jersey, Mr. Vespa-Papaleo and his husband were married in California in June 2008.

One of the issues here, to depart from the sectarian discussion, is that people went to EHarmony because it was different. Heterosexuals don’t try to find dates on gay sites, and they are not inclined to sue because there are other places to go. I think Warren didn’t shut it down because EHarmony is still a good place, albeit with a blood-sucking remora attached to it. It is another step down the wide road that leads to destruction, none of which can be laid at Warren’s feet.

[...] Melissa Clouthier says: These kind of suits make my blood boil. Ditto for women who want access to certain sorts of men’s clubs. People should be able to form groups based on any diverse characteristic they want. It’s called FREEDOM. It may not be politically correct. It may be a stupid group. But that’s what freedom is all about–you’re as free to be an idiot as you are to be smart. It’s up to you. Well, it should be. [...]

There will be no joining of free evangelical churches, and most “organized” evangelical Protestant churches, with Catholicism, except in political interests. These churches will not join Catholicism. It won’t happen for doctrinal reasons and it won’t happen because there will not be safety and anonymity in joining large obvious targets of the State, and of the tort lawyers.

Chuckles,
I guess you missed it where I wrote “for all it’s faults”. I am not holding the Catholic Church blameless at all.

J David,
I agree that Churches are about to get a full frontal assault, and that’s partially why I think a great rejoining with the Catholic Church may very well happen.

The ENDA legislation that I referenced has already been written, debated, and only temporarily set aside for the new powers-that-be to shove down our throats. It will be immediately be tested against churches, particularly large “organized” denominations that represent lots of lawsuit money to be collected for lawyers representing gay invaders. Churches independent of larger organizational framework will much harder to assault, and those may simply size-down to house-sized “Bible studies”, but they will be attacked as well.

Naq,

Too bad the Catholic church didn’t choose the moral high ground with the priest abuse scandal (still ongoing). I guess morality really is subjective… Protestants merging with Catholics – Ha! My kids will never see the inside of a Catholic church if I can help it. Sorry, but I won’t sanction child abuse.

Namquel, if you start getting into sectarian fingerpointing you will shortly have a host of people pointing at child molesting priests. It is said that many younger Catholics are staying away from seminaries because they have become gay clubs. Politicians are still receiving communion that are baby killers, and etc.

We are seeing cultural trends that not only are not going to be overturned, but are going to be advanced and ensconced in the acceptability of full legal protection and even preference. Gay are running wild in the streets intimidating, in many cases with physical violence, all who disagree, and exercise Constitutional rights that they themselves are exercising. The party just voted into power has been advancing their agenda for 40 years.

We let congress/courts tell Private Citizens & businesses what gets built into our cars, toilets, washing machines, etc.

Is this any different that what was happening back there at the top of the slippery slope called CAFE standards ?
