CDFF:Is it Biblical to promote Ungodly dating sites
Posted : 18 Oct, 2011 12:01 PM
Hello everyone:
I will probably be turned off this site for this,yet i need to warn those here of the counterfeit web sites supported here.
I understand this is SUPPOSED to be a Christian dating site,
Yet i see other sites that are not Christian being promoted here.
Does not 2 Corinthians 6:14-18 tell us to come out from among them.
2Co 6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
2Co 6:15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
2Co 6:16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
2Co 6:17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,
2Co 6:18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
Here is a Fox News report concerning EHarmony and a settled lawsuit against the company..
I remember back in 2008 on WABC news radio this very suit was headline news..
eHarmony to Provide Gay Dating Service After Lawsuit
Thursday, November 20, 2008
By Joshua Rhett Miller
Print ShareThisOnline dating service eHarmony has agreed to create a new Web site � "Compatible Partners" � for gay and lesbian users, the New Jersey Office of the Attorney General announced.
Created as part of a settlement with Eric McKinley, a gay man from New Jersey, the Web site will provide services for users seeking same-sex partners by March 31, New Jersey Division on Civil Rights Director J. Frank Vespa-Papaleo said.
eHarmony, which was founded by Dr. Neil Clark Warren in 2000, said the settlement was triggered by a Law Against Discrimination complaint filed by McKinley against the online service on March 14, 2005. As part of the agreement, eHarmony will pay McKinley $5,000 and will provide him a one-year complimentary membership.
eHarmony � which was not found in violation of the law � also agreed to ensure that same-sex users will be matched using the same or equivalent technology used for its heterosexual clients. It will also post photographs of same-sex couples in its "Diversity" section of its Web site and in advertising materials.
"Even though we believed that the complaint resulted from an unfair characterization of our business, we ultimately decided it was best to settle this case," eHarmony legal counsel Theodore Olson said in a statement. "eHarmony looks forward to moving beyond this legal dispute, which has been a burden for the company, and continuing to advance its business model of serving individuals by helping them find successful, long-term relationships."
Registration on the "Compatible Partners" site will be free to the first 10,000 users. The site and eHarmony will maintain individual matching pools and registration information. As a result, users of the "Compatible Partners" site and eHarmony.com cannot be paired together, the company announced.
"With the launch of the Compatible Partners site, our policy is to welcome all single individuals who are genuinely seeking long-term relationships," eHarmony Vice President of Legal Affairs Antone Johnson said in a statement.
The New Jersey settlement is not the first lawsuit filed against eHarmony for failing to accommodate sex-same users.

Linda Carlson, of California, sued the online dating service in May 2007, alleging it discriminated against gays, lesbians and bisexuals. Carlson said she tried to use the Web site a month earlier to meet a woman, but was refused based on her sexual orientation. When Carlson wrote to eHarmony to complain, the company refused to change its policy, according to the lawsuit filed on her behalf in Los Angeles County Superior Court.
The lawsuit claimed that by solely offering to find a compatible match for men seeking women or women seeking men, the company was violating state law barring discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation.
"Such outright discrimination is hurtful and disappointing for a business open to the public in this day and age," Carlson said in a statement.
The lawsuit, which is currently being litigated in Los Angeles Superior Court, named Pasadena-based eHarmony.com Inc., Warren and Warren's wife, Marylyn, the company's former vice president, as defendants. It seeks class-action status, a jury trial and unspecified damages.
The company, which conducts extensive personality profiling before introducing couples with matching values and interests, denied the allegation.
"We believe that this case is now essentially moot, and we're confident that we will prove that in court," Johnson said in a statement provided to FOXNews.com. "Now that we're entering the same-sex matching market, we fail to see what the Carlson plaintiffs could achieve through further litigation."

"eHarmony, Inc. Settles Class Action Lawsuit Over
Same-Sex Matching"
PASADENA, Calif. � January 26, 2010 � eHarmony, Inc. has entered into an agreement to settle a class action lawsuit brought against the company. The action, Carlson, et. al., v. eHarmony, Inc., et al., was filed in 2007 on behalf of a class of gay, lesbian and bisexual individuals in California who alleged that they were unable to use the company�s website to be matched with same-sex partners.
The company has not admitted any wrongdoing or liability. The proposed settlement is subject to approval by the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles, following notice to members of the class.
In March 2009, eHarmony launched a same-sex matching service called Compatible Partners. The settlement agreement includes provisions by which eHarmony will modify and maintain certain features on the eHarmony.com and Compatible Partners websites to make them even more welcoming to people who seek same-sex matches. These provisions include:
Maintain the Compatible Partners website and the ability for people to select �man seeking man� or �woman seeking woman� options from a drop-down menu on the eHarmony.com homepage
Identify Compatible Partners as a service �Brought to you by eHarmony� instead of �Powered by eHarmony�
Display eHarmony�s trademark logo on the Compatible Partners page
Indicate in the URL line, HTML line or a tab to first-time Compatible Partners users that they are on an eHarmony website
Include a �Gay Dating� link on the bottom of eHarmony.com alongside other links to �Jewish Dating,� �Senior Dating,� �Hispanic dating,� and the like
The Settlement Agreement also provides for individuals seeking both same-sex matches and opposite-sex matches to pay a single subscription fee.
Additionally under the settlement, all claims will be dismissed and a $2 million settlement fund will be established. Approximately $500,000 will be designated as a fund for claims by the class. Any unclaimed portion of this fund will be donated to a charity designated by the court. Fees to the class counsel will be awarded by the court.
Terms for distribution of the settlement fund and other settlement terms will be disclosed in a notice to be sent to class members after preliminary court approval.
�We are delighted that eHarmony is making its remarkable technology available to the gay and lesbian community in a way that is more welcoming and inclusive,� said Todd Schneider of Schneider Wallace Cottrell Brayton Konecky LLP, co-lead counsel for the plaintiff class.
�eHarmony can be proud of the reputation that it has built as the best dating site on the Internet and it can be proud of the relationship that it is building with the gay and lesbian community,� said Jeremy Pasternak of the Law Office of Jeremy Pasternak, co-lead counsel for the plaintiff class.
�This is an excellent agreement. It is gratifying to see eHarmony, Inc. support matching for the gay and lesbian community, which makes the Internet a more open place,� said Joshua Konecky of Schneider Wallace, co-lead counsel for the plaintiff class.
�eHarmony is happy to move beyond this litigation so it can continue building Compatible Partners into a successful service,� said Robert Freitas of Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, outside counsel to the company.

Date sites have to follow the laws and not discriminate any one person or groups.
However, I am a Christian and I live in this world but do not have to act like the world. I have morals and certain things I do not do. So, we choose to be on a date site like CDFF and we can still have our same morals and beliefs. We just can not force it on anyone, God has to make their changes.
We live everyday in a World where people do not respect the Laws of God. So, why would you think they would on the Date sites or Internet for that matter.We just continue to Pray for others.

:applause: good response Angel...
well, George, I suppose CDFF should also weed out all the people on this site who claim and confess and profess to being born again Chritsians in love with Jesus, but they are not.
Most people on this site know nothing about Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior, and are nothing but whoremongers, scammers, liars, perverts, and thieves, and cheats trying to get over, using other people to pay their way.
Many men and women on this site don't work and lie about the kind of work they do, or they have been to prison, and or child molesters,rapists, into all kinds of perverted practices, bank robbers, got jail records, drunks, drug-heads, adulterous and adultresses, murderers, homosexuals, and the likes. I also think its unbiblical for CDFF to allow so-called Christians on this site who have a form of godliness, but deny the power of God. And they should get rid of all members who are ungodly and still living in sins, yet say they are born again Christians, on this site as well ...starting with the liars.
I think CDFF should kick ALL LIARS off the site first.. after all it is written for us Christians who are born again, not to even associate even eat with a brother or sister who is a fornicators, covetous, extortioners, idolaters, or an adulterers, or adulteress, or a drunks or dug-heads, or a liar or homosexual, or a whoremonger... so CDFF should get rid of every member on this site who practice such sins.,,, yeah, that-a-learn'em to be holy!...uh..:applause:
SO, CDFF Let the weeding out process began!:yay::dancingp:

@ET
I have been giving the word of GOD on this site for some time.
Both in Hebrew and Greek usually 3 or 4 translations with interpretation/.
What is given in return;
Name calling (You are of the devil).
You need to repent
What church do you belong to.
Who is your Pastor
You cannot fellowship at Wal-Mart
Where is the building you meet at
All of these plus more are the results of bringing forth the Word of GOD..
So to answer you call as to removing the Yeast
People want the yeast,not the Pure milk of the Word of GOD;
Nor do they want meat,for with the meat there comes tremendous responsibility to going and MAKING DISCIPLES.
Also there is individual responsiblity for the meeting of the Saints,this responsibility is upon EVERY INDIVIDUAL BELIEVER.
This is the RESPONSIBILITY of EACH and EVERY SINGLE BELIEVER.
This is not the responsibility of the SO-CALLED senior-pastor;pastor.
Not the SO-CALLED WORSHIP TEAM.
1Co 14:26 Then what is it, brothers? When you come together, each one of you has a psalm, he has a teaching, he has a language, he has a revelation, he has an interpretation. Let all things be for building up.
1Co 14:27 If one speaks in a language, let it be by two or three at the most, and in turn, also let one interpret.
1Co 14:28 And if there is no interpreter, let him be silent in the assembly, and let him speak to himself and to God.
1Co 14:29 And if there are two or three prophets, let them speak, and let the others discern.
1Co 14:30 But if a revelation is revealed to another sitting by, let the first be silent.
1Co 14:31 For you can all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be encouraged.
1Co 14:32 And the spirits of prophets are subject to prophets.
1Co 14:33 For God is not of confusion, but of peace, as in all the assemblies of the saints.
When you understand this completely,then you might
