Nah, you probably did something else to piss him off. "Jesus" is a weapon to some people. They trot out their fairy godfather when it suits them.
I completely agree with this. It could simply be your atheism that pisses him off or something you said. Either way, he wouldn't tell you you were going to hell if he wasn't pissed about something. Could just be he doesn't like it when people don't agree with him. I have a fundie aunt and uncle who, believe it or not, are the sweetest, least judgmental people I know. I have never once heard I am going to hell from them and we have religious conversations all the time.
