Media and the journalists are worldly and belonging to a fallen world they are bound to attack religion - in complete ignorance of the truth. Not to mention complete ignorance of decency and morals. The all encompassing term of "religion" is itself worldly in the perceptions of both the secular and the religious reprobates.
The world "treats" true Christians as the enemy and yet they don't really understand how and what that means.
But look at their destiny.
Matt 13:38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.
40 As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.
Matt 18:7 Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!
"Offences" = Greek "Skandalon" = Something which will trip you up in sin/temptation. Succumb unto temptation. Christians have protection in this. The nonChristians however live under the dominion of sin. A life of "offence" unto God. No protection - guilty as charged.
