theist
atheist
antitheist
areligious
antireligious
so many layers
And it seems that the most vitriolic are those who could best be described as anti-religious.
If one assumes an infinite distance between man and god, then prognostications about god invariable and necessarily are prognostications about man, with the erroneous assumption that they are about god.
If one assumes that there is some entity which could be called "GOD" then being a theist or atheist or antitheist or areligious or antireligious becomes meaningless. As, the choice is not ours to make.
Original sin and/or infinite distance between us and god, has the benefit of making us all equals, and the morality embodied therein becomes a damned good guide for how we should treat each other.
Exactly why those who have a social conscience will fight the evils of religion.
It is called duty to your fellow man.
Christianity is not big on that and Jesus would tell them that to their faces.
