IN my opinion, I dont see the problem in them turning away that couple, because of their convictions and beliefs. If they believe that lifestyle is wrong, they have the right to do so. Call them homophobes if you like, they are just that, but I think they should be allowed to do so. Its getting out of hand now how people arent allowed to teach their children their religious values, especially in their own home. Granted its a business, but its still a guest house. They have to live there, their kids live there.
IF it was a hotel, I would feel differently about it, but a B&B is a completely different thing. I wouldnt want to go in there if I am not welcome in the first place. My problem is, they already accepted the couple, therefore, they should honor the reservation at that point. Sprinkle it with holy water or whatever afterwards. But it was too late, after they already booked them, and let them come all the way. Who knows how far they drove. And they dont know if they can find other accommodations.
So if I have those convictions, knowing that being homosexual isnt very rare or illegal, I would make it a point to ask who the guests are, before booking anyone. Like I said, Homophobia might be wrong to some, but its not illegal. same with racism, it might be wrong, but it isnt illegal.
