NC: Restaurant Drops Prayer Discount After Threats From Freedom From Religion Foundation

 This diner gives 15% off if you pray over your meal

There’s a restaurant in Winston-Salem, North Carolina that’s made headlines recently when it became known that they give (when they feel like it) a 15% discount to those customers who pray before their meal. As the owner said, it wasn’t required that you necessarily pray in order to receive the discount; it was more that if you showed an attitude of gratitude for your meal, she felt compelled to give those people a discount. And it wasn’t a policy or anything, because she didn’t offer it every time. She’s the owner, and she can do whatever she wants. If people were offended by her selective generosity, they could go somewhere else.

But thanks to the religious fanatics over at the Freedom from Religion Foundation (FFRF), the owner of that restaurant has decided to drop the whole discount thing. She doesn’t want any trouble or lawsuits against her establishment. Here’s what’s now posted to the entrance door at her restaurant:

  2. Now, now. "wacking"? Chicago style? That sounds so, violent. I am a compromising peaceful gentle soul (just so long as you have the good sense to see it my way).
    I'd like to think of, envision it as.....behavior/social modification and attitude adjustment via the most agressive use of mineral therapy delivered at high velocity..... as in 124gr JHP .357 at 1250 fps. With the question being; Do you want to meet Jesus RFN, or later? Your call, Mr FFRF guy.

  3. It's more than obvious that the real issue here is freedom. Don't you think the restaurant owner has the right of freedom to choose his discounts the way he wants. If a store owner wants to discount boots, can someone without feet file a lawsuit. Can a liquor store discount alcohol without a lawsuit from an alcoholic.

    There is a war against religion and people's freedoms. The people waging the war seem to feel that everyone has to act and react the way they have the freedom to say things and act against them, but that is their freedom to do so. Folks, we need to get the Democrats and liberal progressives out of our government or they will sue us for breathing the air around them as it prevents them from getting enough oxygen. This is BS all the way.
