Curious George

In this case though, religion is only incidental to the issue. The issue is that the restaurant wants to boost business for Sunday noon. so they offer incentive to groups who happen to be most likely to be out on Sunday noon. The fact that those people are church goers is incidental and not the reason. If Jews were out at that time, they'd be offering them a discount. If students were out at that time, they'd be offering them a discount. And the fact remains that anyone -- religious or not -- can obtain a church bulletin easily.
Perhaps you miss my point, When one group is offered "incidental" privilege, then the discrimination is not blatant it is systemic. This type of discrimination is not anymore legal.
