As a Christian, I see indirect persecution everywhere I go. Direct intellectual persecution is all over media too. Not sure that is what you had in mind, but it is like Lot living in Sodom. Peter made a commented.
2 Peter 2:7
He rescued righteous Lot, oppressed by the sensual conduct of unprincipled men
I did comment on our indirect persecution. I do continue to wonder...that the persecution is not more direct - at me as an individual - physically (even intellectually), is this because I am not approaching living like Christ?

Thank you for sharing this. One more reason we are supposed to hate Russia, I think.
