I see that the gay couple who were refused a double room in a B&B have won their case and been awarded £1800 damages. I'm not sure of the background facts, so can't really comment, but the hoteliers were found to have acted unlawfully. Does anyone know which law they actually broke and what the damaged were in respect of?

*s-lag* me off.
I like the way the Gay Brigade have ganged up and have started to call eyethenkyew childish names and insults.

''You can't turn away people from a hotel because they're black or Jewish and in 2011 you shouldn't be able to demean them by turning them away because they're gay either," Stonewall chief executive Ben Summerskill said.


Being black or Jewish is not immoral though

TheTruthHere,

You should know my answer to that from your own moniker: Truth hurts! They don't like it, but can't get the better of me, so they then resort to childish behaviour.
I wonder if the B&B owners would also refuse entry to people with tattoos, people wearing pearls or gold jewellery, men without testicles, people who eat snails, divorcees, people who wear blended fabrics, fortune tellers, people with Beatles haircuts, menstruating women, people who practise coitus interruptus. All are outlawed in the Bible. I'm guessing the owners couldn't care less about any of those; because, like so many intolerants, they are very selective about which bits of the Bible they've chosen to abide by, in order to self-justify their bigotry.

Clearly the more intelligent posters have been 'getting the better' of Donald Duck all evening. He's just too stoopid to realise it

What a THOROUGHLY excellent post.

I only wish someone could pose that to the B&B owners in question. They'd be stuttering
and stammering for hours on that one.

Another case of bigotry dressed up as 'religious observance'.

You nailed it.
eyethenkyew, I did ask what you thought specifically was unnatural but you didn't have the decency/spine to answer. Is it because you know you're wrong and that when you actually say it you'll be proven wrong?
Either way, I'm putting this down as a personal 1-0, it's good to be back!
Paul re "...you didn't have the decency/spine to answer".
I don't think his lack of response was to do with decency or spine, more likely you have found the limitations of his intelligence in debate.
And I hope he reads ALL the responses....the poor ignorant chap..!!!

Afraid I don't do personal requests - you couldn't afford me.
I feel in the mood to sue Aqualung for posting unsolicited photographs of my girlfriend on AB.
"you couldn't afford me" ..delusions of grandeur too.
Here, have a lump of bread duckboy !
Quaaaaaak !
You have the wrong sheep Mike she baahlongs to someone else
haha, why is having a Beatles haircut against Christian principles? Are some of those listed by Backdrifter from the Old Testament, being more outlawed by traditional beleifs of Judasim rather than Christianity?
This question has certainnly stirred up something. And I always thought that if you were in business you would take money off anyone, regardless of what they were.
I'm confused, so ETY is against unnatural acts but is available at a price? Ohh I get it!! For the record, I haven't been a 'bad boy' so leave off!
