anti-Christian
Opposing the faith
Anti-Christian describes attitudes, actions, or policies that oppose Christianity, its beliefs, or its adherents.
The term covers a spectrum from intellectual critique of Christian doctrine to active hostility or persecution of Christians.
The regime's anti-Christian policies forced churches underground.
Someone described as anti-Christian may simply reject Christian teachings or may actively work against Christian influence in society.
The term is sometimes deployed polemically to characterize secular policies or criticism of religious institutions as hostile rather than merely neutral.
