So your statement that anger, skepticism and ridicule are masks for fear is fact based on which doctrine of knowledge?
anger is an emotion and could be caused by people irritating you with ridiculous arguments
skepticism is a skill that can be developed and used to question theories, especially flawed theories
ridicule is a learned behaviour which the intelectually challenged uses when they realise they do not have the knowledge to formulate a lucid or eloquent argument.

"Anger, skepticism, ridicule, these are all masks for
Fear"
Wrong.
If someone does something to anger me, it doesn't make me fear.
Scepticism is important. To accept everything without question is called gullibility.
If someone says/does something deserving of ridicule, I ridicule them. It doesn't mean I fear them in any way.

I'm a afraid there is a biblical god then I might have to spend eternity with religious nuts as cell buddies in heaven. Hopefully I'd go to hell, which would be heaven compared to the alternative.

Did you not see Star Wars episode V when Luke Skywaler told Yoda 'I'm not afraid' and Yoda said 'You should be!!!' People who ride motorcycles who don't respect the dangers of them might end up in the emergency ward. The fear of God is the begining of wisdom as said by Soloman... the wisest merely human king in hist
There is a healthy kind of fear, a respect for God and also an unhealthy kind. "Perfect love casts out fear [the unhealthy kind... my comment] he who fears is not perfected in love" 1 John
In Jesus there can be the healthy respect of God, the saving God fearing as we glorify God leaning on the work of Jesus on the cross believing for eternal life

I am not afraid, I walk with God every day. If something is going to happen to me then so be it. I know that alot of things that do happen can be self inflicted and or being in the wrong place at the wrong time. You can't live life afraid, or you will never be able to accomplish anything.

I'm not afraid and I try not to express anger. I don't ridicule people because it would only hurt their feelings and therefor hurt God.

Since you are ridiculing others by asking this "question", that must also mean you're AFRAID.

Of course people get afraid! Beliefs are important to people whither good or bad they give people hope in their time of need. I dont think its up to anyone to take that away from people who need it.

We are afraid because life, and enjoyment of life, are very delicate things. Ironically, it is our fear that prevents life from being enjoyable in the first place.
