As regards disabled people, people with children and ethnic minorities, there is nothing in Christianity that says any of these groups are anathema to a Christian God.

Dress it up however you like...it was just prejudice.
You said 'I don't think a B&B should be classified as if it were a hotel - it is after all a person's OWN home from which they let out rooms so surely they are entitled to decide who they have under their roof as their paying guests?'
So under that...people would be able to turn away guests for ANY reason. So my point still stands
