Unfortunately, yes, Christians are persecuted in the modern world. Of course they are not thrown to the lions or crucified, but in many countries that have a state religion or are atheistic, they are persecuted economically, educationally, and their civil and religious rights are restricted.

Persecution is when the lives or livelihoods of people are severely threatened or such people face legal hardships because they are Christians.
