North Carolina restaurant offers a 15 percent discount if you pray in public

[HeDied4U]

"A Winston-Salem restaurant is giving customers a 15 percent discount if they pray in public.

Mary’s Gourmet Diner in Winston-Salem gives the discount for anyone who takes the time to appreciate their food before digging in. Although the restaurant has been offering the special for four years, a recent Facebook post featuring a receipt with the discount has gone viral, highlighting the practice."

Nice practice, but how long will it now be until some offended atheist runs to the ACLU crying discrimination?

I believe the motives of the restaurant owner are pure. I also believe it is a wonderful idea to show gratitude and thankfulness to God for our food. What I find unfortunate is those who do not get "randomly" selected and get upset about it. That would kind of defeat the purpose, wouldn't it?

How would you go to the manager and say, "Hey! We publicly bowed our heads and thanked God for this food; where's my discount?!"

I think it would create a lot of praying "that they may be seen by men" (Matthew 6:5).

This was actually my first thought.

Well, if you earn that discount, I guess you have your reward.  :
