In reply to Annette Mentasti. So just because there are some high income earners that are gay that is going to change his belief (not I don't thing so). Money is not going to change a godly mans belief system. He will never change his mind and nor will I because God is very clear on this issue and it is TOTALY NATURAL and it does not matter who you are in society.

In reply to Lidia Theron. Why do you have to force you orientation onto other people? Surely they also have a right, just like a guy person has a right to live out his life without forcing it on another. What are you naming and shaming??? We live in a autonomous culture and not a heteronomous culture so learn to respect when others also say no because that is the autonomous right!!!

Come on people. A private venue has the right to have any policies in place they feel necessary. Most churches,mosques and other religious centres choose to not do same-sex marriages for the same reasons(religious beliefs) and by verbally attacking their choices you are in fact also descriminating them for their beliefs…and that in itself makes you no better. If you are wanting a same sex marriage at a private venue,save yourself a ton of dissapointment and embarrasement and simply ask right at the start if they do offer their services to same-sex couples.

In reply to Rev Oscar Peter Bougardt. They didn't vandalize the business. They simply mentioned it to the media. They have a right to.

Beloftebos in Stanford, outside Hermanus in the Cape, also refuse to marry same-sex couples. It is an incredibly popular venue, but this is stated in their actual service contract with couples.

Ek sien dit is nie die eerste keer wat dit gebeur nie . In 2011 het ek en my man ook na venues gekyk en wou graag by Tres Jolie Peterweg Ruimsig trou. Nadat ons ‘n halfuur moes wag vir die eienaar om ons te sien het sy om gedraai en blatant vir ons in ons gesigte gese dat sy nie ons tipe bedien nie. Ons is egter by Carvers Restaurant in Northcliff getroud deur Ds Trevor Skinner van die Reformeerende Kerk Johannesburg.

The Gay Community should start creating their own businesses that ONLY cater to gay clientele. These straight people don’t realize the amount of disposable income the gay community has. The term “gay friendly” is a myth, and I absolutely hate that term because they’re only friendly until they have your money.
