Speaking from my own experiences, it's really wild how the irreligious screech and wail when one of these stores wants to open up. A few years back my town got a Hobby Lobby and the leftists were protesting for weeks, if not months. Same thing anytime mention of a Chick-fil-A opening here comes up. Luckily for In-N-Out they opened up here 25 years ago before my town's more radical swing to the left.
These protestors complain in their echo chambers, rally a dozen people to hold picket signs and think they're moving the needle but fortunately the majority of the population is actually still Christian to some degree. They not only like to patronize the stores themselves but they find added motivation because these stores have Christian foundations.
It’s commonly regarded as something of an axiom, among the general population, that business owners are much wiser to refrain from mingling company policies with religious practices. It’s largely considered prudent to eschew any risk of being dubbed “too Christian” in our current era in which the overly sensitive are largely regarded as prophets. And yet numerous companies are thriving today as they carry on, at least to some extent, with those policies guided by the faith-based principles instilled by their founders. Chick-fil-A, Hobby Lobby, In-N-Out and Forever 21 are a few such examples.
