I see nothing wrong with the sign (the one you linked, Leo), but on the other hand I think... is it really such a big deal to put up such a sign anyway? I'm all for free speech... but a 'controversial' sign over the - I think petty - matter of Xmas?


Can you point out the controversial part of that sign for me? Because I don't see it.

Judging by the comments on the sign, I'd say it's not obvious at all.

Because not everyone lives in an area where it is "okay" not to believe in God. That you and me happen to live in areas where not believing in gods is not an issue does not mean that that is the case everywhere.
