If atheism is true then man is all alone in the universe which is full of suffering and death. Such a universe is a fearful place for man to exist and die, along with the prospect that human life is ultimately futile. Such an existence is in accord with fear of existing for no reason without relief from the prospect of suffering and death and the accompanying injustices in the world.
If theism is true and God exists, man lives along with a giant God who watches our every move and choses to remain silent and largely remains hidden from most or many men. Such a God is beyond the control of men and cannot be stopped from acting. Men should then live in fear of the God who owns the universe and may justly judge man at any time.
Either way, there is good reason for man to fear if God does or does not exist.
