Yes definitely defensive. Another tactic I have come across is the assertion "people don't know about Jesus any more". This implies that the only reason very few people are believers (in the UK at least) is that knowledge about this story is somehow being withheld (by the Devil?) and if free access to it were given then the churchs would be bulging at the seams. This is probably better than observing that people know about the Xtian myth and chose not to believe it.
