Discount for Praying?

Quote:NC eatery rejects separation of church and plate with discount for ‘praying in public’

Quote:Later, the waitress allegedly “came over at the end of the meal and said, ‘Just so you know, we gave you a 15% discount for praying,’ which I’d never seen before.”

See....I'd have to ask that fucking waitress if the food was really that bad?

It's the least they could do. After all, the fucker with the fish and loaves hasn't showed up for work in 2000 years.

Since Jebus did all the work they don't have to pay the cook.

Stiff the waitress and tell her to pray for a tip.

Maybe this is the "reward in full" Jesus was talking about in Matt 6:5 regarding public prayer? "Dude, I prayed for you in public, and all I'm getting is a lousy 15% off?"

Such a policy to me screams "We don't want your [atheists] business."

I'd be happy to oblige.

I'm starting to think some mass executions are the only solution.
