I don't think it's an anti-christian presence or anti-faith presence. Read Roman Polanski video comment boxes, people are incredibly hateful there. The other day I was watching a really boring video of some girl on the beach with her friends and everyone called her a whore and this and that it was ridiculous, and I may point out that some people left bible verses in their comments while calling this young lady a whore. Frankly, the internet is someplace where people blow off steam and say foolish and rude things. It's probably better it happens online than in the "real world". So I sympathize with what you're saying as a christian myself, but let's not play victim all the time. Everyone has it tough, not just us.
