You're very good on the terminology, and have obviously taken the trouble to educate yourself on who you're talking to. Thanks for that, it's actually fairly unusual for someone who is new here and a Christian to have such a good grasp of our position already.
I'm going to pick a nit on 'anti-theist' though. It would be more inclusive to say an anti-theist believes people shouldn't be theists rather than that they would be against a god if it were real...I'm sure there are many like that; but the position named is against theism, belief in any gods, rather than against gods themselves. Most anti-theists would cease being atheists if a god was shown to exist, and I think for many of them, whether they were against that god would depend on its nature.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
