Mauer said:Simple enough. Take me for instance, I'm a fairly young guy, have a normal job, wife and two kids. I have BBQ's, birthday parties, watch football and baseball, and drive an average joe car. Everything about me has middle America and average joe written all over it except one thing, I'm a Christian. That is a believer in Christ who tries with God's grace to live a life pleasing to Him and according to His will for me. So the question is "Why is the world hostile towards me?"
I know the biblical answer, but would very much be interested in the views of "unbelievers". Not necessarily hostile ones either, just in general.
The idea of Christian hatred is a fantasy invented in the minds of Christians to satisfy their notion of being martyrs for the faith. Christians are no more hated than any other religion (although these days, Muslims appear to be hated more than others). Of note, I did not see any examples in your post of hatred against you because you are a Christian. I would find it nearly impossible, in fact, for Christians to be hated in the U.S., where they make up more than 80% of the population. If they are indeed hated so much, they must not need to worry about it.
