Why is there so much conflict over this issue?
Would people have such a big problem if this sign related Hindu beliefs, instead of atheist beliefs?
Even as a "former Christian" I still don't understand why the presence of opposing or even different points of view is seen as a threat to Christians.
Christians - does this sign piss you off? why?

If you bothered to look at the date of the post, it was to a 'news article' almost 2 years ago.
“What do you think science is? There is nothing magical about science. It is simply a systematic way for carefully and thoroughly observing nature and using consistent logic to evaluate results. So which part of that exactly do you disagree with? Do you disagree with being thorough? Using careful observation? Being systematic? Or using consistent logic?�
