For example, "anti-Semite" means you have an aversion toward Jewish/Semitic people. "Homophobia" is aversion towards GLBT people.
Those words are useful because they're pejorative and no one wants to be accused of them. The gay rights movement makes strides because no one wants to be accused of homophobia.
So if atheists and agnostics want equality, shouldn't there be a word we can to describe people who have an aversion towards us?

Keep in mind, it should sound very pejorative, but you would automatically understand its meaning.

Why must we make up pejorative words?
Would it not be better to try to have understanding towards those that don't understand and that are afraid?
If you want to be accepted and listened to, then learn to accept and listen.

Anti-Secular.
Just a question though...if you were anti-theist and a theist hated you...would they be anti-anti-theist?
