Theophobia is a fear of religion or God/gods. A portion of atheists fear God and the existence of hell plays a role in this matter (see: Atheism and hell).
For example, the journalist and ex-atheist Peter Hitchens, who is the brother of the late atheist Christopher Hitchens, said upon seeing an art exhibit of Michelangelo's painting The Last Judgment he came to the realization that he might be judged which startled him.[1] This started a train of thought within Peter Hichens that eventually led him to become a Christian.[2]
