I mean, the meme here is satire, no idea what it originally was supposed to be, someone slapped on the message about atheists for a joke.
But yeah, broadly it IS accurate to how conservatives feel about the kinds of families we want, the kinds of pets we want, the kinds of food we eat, the clothes we wear, etc. Every change to that normalized order terrifies them, it's in the name.
Feeling afraid of change is fine. Most of us have those kinds of feelings, most of us are going to have wary responses to the unfamiliar. But the conservative base in the US in particular have the worst combination in the world, which is fear of change plus stupidity, so they fall prey to any story supplied to them about what exactly they're scared of and give it no actual thought. All feelings, no thinking.
