Human beliefs are complex.
It is safe to say that most people who believe in the existence of a deity do so out of indoctrination.
But "most" is not "all".

Fear plays a role after the belief takes root.... the fear of what would happen in the person leaves the faith... which then can extend to fear for those who don't believe.... which can then extend to fear OF those who don't believe.
