Insurance Company Loses Lawsuit After Discriminating Against Atheists

From FriendlyAtheist.com By Hemant Mehta

"GuideOne Mutual Insurance Company was offering a free service to people who bought their homeowners and renters insurance — a service that would offer “special benefits and discounts.”  It was called FaithGuard and it only applied to “churchgoers” and “people of faith.” The implication being, I suppose, that non-religious people would cause all sorts of problems…That didn’t sit so well with one atheist, one agnostic, and the (non-profit) Lexington Fair Housing Council."
