Same guy as in last question. The candy store owner says "Randy being a Mormon had nothing to do with this. I picked the other guy because he used to run my other candy store and Randy has never run a candy store." Is this a legitimate business reason for not giving Randy the manager job?

Same guy, same candy store. Randy now closes out the case by bringing in 3 witnesses who all have known the guy chosen for manager since he was a kid. They all testify that the guy never ran a candy store in his life, but that he goes to the same church as the owner, and the owner told them that he would never let a Mormon run his store. Is this enough proof of "pretext" for Randy to "overcome" the "legitimate business reason" given by the owner?
