    IIRC they’ve previously fought in court for the right to exclude atheists.

    No recent court cases because private organizations are allowed to discriminate.

      They did the same for LGBT until recently.

      Being a private organization does not grant you an unlimited right to discriminate, no matter how much the right likes to pretend it does. That’s why anti-discrimination laws exist. There’s loopholes orgs have tried to use, and protections vary by state, but just being a “private organization” doesn’t mean “do whatever prejudicial thing you want.”

      Like I said, I don’t see this current iteration of the org fighting atheists in court.
