Because the church is preventing people from having equal rights. Quite a big thing, in my book.

You wouldn't allow Mr Tattoo and his mates, pierced beyond belief looking like a meccano set was glued to their face clutching cans of Special Brew in, would you?

Yes I would. If I ran a B&B I'd want to be a welcoming host to all, so long as they didn't cause damage, disturbance or so forth. Why would you run a B&B and decide to only be welcoming to a certain group of people? You shouldn't be in the business if that's the case.

The fact of it being said sarcastically indicates that, quite clearly, I don't have a serious answer.

You may as well say the same of a gay couple. How would you know that two men booking in to your establishment and sharing a room were gay? Would you ask them on their way in?

So you don't believe in God but care about his institutions.

Anyway I'm laughing in my beard ( just a saying....) thinking of the wedding service in the orthodox christian church.
It's destinated to hetero people but contains a lot of advice like "the woman should fear of her man", "the woman should be obedient to man because man is woman's head ", etc.
Wouldn't you say that the church is discriminating women?

However I've noticed that all brides don't care about it and are glowing of joy.....

I agree with you on this! If they had specifically asked for a double-bed then that would be a clue...but I'm not against any of this. They can do what they want and a hotel shouldn't be discriminating on these grounds.

And this brings us back to comment a few pages back - as in you don't look at couples in the street and wonder what they get up to in bed.

Certainly, you would not turn away decent folk, gay, straight, muslim etc. But you should be able to turn away those you have good reason to consider might cause trouble/damage without them pulling the descrimination card.......

Their sexuality is no 'good reason', though, is it? And, if you were to turn people away on that basis, what is it other than discrimination?

For once you've got it right. This must be the end of the world! :laugh:
