Yeah and that I guess is the largest problem with it because you never really know how the person you are talking to will understand it as a word. It has a lot of emotion behind it for some people and is almost derogatory, while for others it is a very technical term.It is a slur commonly used to describe anyone deemed to be to the religious right of you so you don't have to think about their beliefs anymore.
That is how some people use it. But, it is not always the case. It does have legitimate usage.
