*Poster with burning flames put up at Attleborough Baptist Church, Norfolk
*The sign read: 'If you think there is no God you'd better be right!!'
*Robert Gladwin, 20, accused the sign of going against Christian traditions
*Pastor forced to remove sign after police investigated it as a 'hate incident'
A baptist church was at the centre of a police probe after a sign which suggested non-Christians would 'burn in hell' was investigated as a 'hate incident'.
The offending sign at Attleborough Baptist Church in Norfolk, pictured burning flames below words which read: 'If you think there is no God you better be right!!'
Now the church has been forced to remove the sign after a passer-by complained to police that it could 'not be further' from the Christian phrase, love thy neighbour.
Robert Gladwin, 20, said: 'It is my basic understanding that Christianity is inclusive and loving in nature.
'The message being displayed outside of the church could not be further from the often uttered phrase love thy neighbour.'
Mr Gladwin said he was 'astounded' when he spotted the poster by chance as he was walking home.

... but roll over and play dhimmi for the non-assimilating immigrants who actually behead on earth for their religion.
And they let this complainer get by with using a basic Christian phrase? Has he never heard that it's a good thing to tell the uninformed not to touch a hot stove because it can burn them? I'll bet, that when he meets his Maker and finds that his name is not in the Book of Life, he will claim foul because "nobody warned him".
