Absolutely.
No doubt whatsoever.

However since we are all banned from any site that they post on, how will we tell them?

I wouldn't mind but things like women's rights, homosexual rights, and social justice I believed in when I was a Catholic (in spite of the Church), when I was a Buddhist, and when I was 'spiritual but not religious'. All of these issues have their own arguments completely independently of atheism or religion. I saw no connection at all.
Btw you do know that gay has been the up to date word for homosexual since the 1970s don't you?

The rationale was very clear. You were being called out for being overly fussy about terminology. In context, ani was describing "homosexual rights" in the context of his catholic past, which was fair enough...

Hmm. You didn't seem to need a rationale in order to ignore what Ani actually said in favour of self-authorised tone-policing.

Look who's being "overly fussy" about terminology now! You treasure your vocabulary, JimC, it far exceeds your understanding.

Tone policing and concern trolling is all we hear out of you.

There were no new postings for months on end, apart from a bit of sniping about why it died.
Now it's just a "General Error" page.

doesn't he call himself a racist?

I mean it's not controversial, I think.

Do we need to call him a racist for some reason? Why?

What business is it of ours if he's a racist?
