If I wanted to play PvP I would have stuck with COD it's far superior in that aspect.
I bought this game to not PvP and yet at every turn we are being pushed in that direction with the new challenges and exotic bounties to get weapons. Joining either of the 3 factions available in the game again pushes you to PvP or you can not purchase content from them... come on Bungie thought you had more imagination than this, your options are boundless in the rich and diverse world you have created don't be a sheep and do the same as every other game which will go out of fashion if you carry on like this!!!

You can farm spinmetal, helium etc and get PVP rep and points. It would take a while but theres is a way to get PVP points without playing pvp.
