I still enjoy it and plan to read it to my kids one day. It's a fun world, and always will be, independently of the beliefs that the author developed decades after it was written.

Lovecraft, Tolkien, and certainly the majority of classic authors held beliefs that most would find objectionable. That doesn't make their work any less great.
