Yes and people misuse that quote to be anti theist (although could have also been a sister who was a colossal bitch that used his work to justify Nazis)
The point he was making is that religion and God provide morality, and if you go down the road of not requiring religion, you'd better have something take it's place or it'll be a decent into degeneracy and downfall (current times)
I think the embrace of Communist thought is the reason for the atheist movement. Since, according to them, Christianity is part of the "superstructure of capitalism", it must be dismantled. These days they might say that Christianity is the result of homophobia, misogyny, racism, etc, but it amounts to the same thing.
This is a direct result of the atheism movement in America. Christianity became target #1 and Hedonism became the new religion.
I would heavily suggest you read Nietzche, genealogy of morals as he warned about this outcome over a century ago.
It’s been awhile but I believe that was part of the “god is dead” and the less mentioned “and we killed him”

He spent the last decade of his life in an asylum.
