Why do some Christians seem to have the need, such as this man, to be so ostentatious about his faith? Isn't it the way one lives one's life that is important? Nothing wrong with proclaiming one's faith, but why so in-your-face?

How is posting a sign ON HIS PRIVATELY OWNED BUILDING considered "IN-YOUR-FACE"?

I don't like you flying the American flag in YOUR yard. Take it down. It too "in my face". Get real. It is his private property and it is not offensive.

Yes, he broke the ordinance, but you, like many others on this thread are missing why I posted it to begin with. If he was gay, trans, or black, the ACLU would have said "damn the city ordinance; first ammendment, private property, racist, sexist, white, choice, etc."

If the town enforces its laws on everyone without exception, then the Jesus sign ought to go down. However, I do understand your point about the ACLU. The ACLU would definitely defend the man if the sign stated "In the name of Allah, the compassionate, the merciful" on the grounds of racism.
