It was like fear of being on stage or in front of people. It's so terrifying, but once you step out and do it, the fear passes and you are calm, motivated, and confident. Time to rock! Christianity is fear based (fear of dying, fear of the unknown, fear of loneliness, fear of loss, etc), and once you let go of that fear you realize there is nothing to be afraid of (aka - no man behind the curtain) except fear itself.
I think that you have a very good point. And I think that the Christians fear that the atheists might somehow jeopardize things for them.
I think that they have a fear of us that we don't have of them. At least not in the same way.
