How much is the discount? Why the discrimination? Is there a secret handshake that I can use to get this discount?

Oh, yes my fuzzy tail....husband of my wife's friend worked at such a place. My, my, what a dismal place to be for a non-believer.

That's an interesting question. Any kind of discount would be illegal, and for that matter, you have to think religious imagery in the workplace would be illegal too, since it would make Jewish, atheist, Pagan, etc employees uncomfortable.
For what it's worth, I needed a plumber a while ago. I called everyone in the Yellow Pages, skipping the Jesus Fish guy. They were all busy, so I tried the Christian Plumber(tm) and he was available -- I wonder if his ad backfired with other people too.

Why is it bigotted or discriminating for somebody to place an iconic image on one's own own vehicle, living house or agency? i assume you have never heard of freedom of speech. The fish is an emblem of Christianity for 2 motives: while it became no longer risk-free to publicly admit you have been a Christian, and in case you had to understand if somebody else became a Christian, you should no longer in basic terms ask, or you are able to finally end up being lion food. So, what they did is this: you may casually draw the appropriate a million/2 of the fish interior the floor alongside with your toe. If the different individual became a Christian, they could end the image then rub it out. The be conscious "Fish" in Greek includes the letters that make an anagram that spelled out says "Jesus Christ, God's Son, Savior" YiChThus or some thing like that. extra remark to Katie: i'm sorry to pay attention that somebody could do some thing as spiteful as throwing a brick by way of your dad's vehicle. As a Christian, myself, i could never do something like that.

How would a business person identify a Christian ? If wearing a cross on a chain gets a discount, a lot of crosses would show up on other than Christians.

I'm not so sure I even want to shop in a store that posts the Jesus fish in their window.

They may do that, but they will not get any of my business. It is like the separation of Church and State. They are quite able to profess any kind of faith on the back of their trucks, but I also retain my right not to hire them for purely that reason.
If they choose to alienate customers, that's their business decision.

You have to wear a WWJD armband.
WWJD? Give a discount!

Yes, it's true. Also, they give eachother free loans and don't even care if you pay them back.

Some of them do, but you have to be a true Christian you can't just say you are.
