people who claim Christianity, I welcome any message a church puts out that causes people to treat non-Christians better. Since I don't believe that any deities or other such supernatural entities exist, I can't comment on whether that sign is doctrinal or not. I can comment on a hope that it makes people who attend that church or see that sign might think. I approve of thinking, in general.
I've never seen much benefit come from attacking religious belief on its basis. I've seen much benefit come from encouraging respect for others, though. Frankly, I don't care what people believe in terms of religion. I care how they behave. If they behave well, then I'm for them. If they behave poorly, I'm against them. It is that simple for me.
