According to the OED, Theophobia is an "Anxious fear of God; dread of divine anger; rarely, aversion to or hatred of God. So theophobist (-ˈɒfəbɪst), one who is affected with theophobia." Rather than an irrational fear of religion. --Jsanglier (talk) 20:15, 29 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

Agreed. This fits both the etymology and all four of the quotations in the article, so I went ahead and made the edit. Cheeftun (talk) 16:37, 12 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
