But yes, I do get a major stick up my a** when people start hating on the church seeing as it's had nothing but a positive effect on my life.
and what about all the negative effects it's had on millions upon millions of people over the years? You must be able to see that other people have differing opinions on the church and christianity in general? And that they might want to express that distaste through creative expression? Art? Literature? Music maybe?
If you find a comedian funny but some of his material suggests a negative attitude towards the church does this make him a poor comedian? etc etc
