    Religious belief or organized religion? Big, big difference. Most people who are spiritual but do not participate in organized religion do not have as much fear. Fear is a tool and a damn good one to deceive people and make them do things they normally wouldn't.

    i imagine that it really is all contained in the way that that is taught. yet universal if human beings were person-pleasant with themselves then convinced, severe non secular beliefs does produce worry. i replaced into observing on E! about the lady that drowned her 4 youthful children in a bathtub bathtub. I felt very sorry for her. She replaced into in hell actually. She feared that she replaced into evil, she feared that if she did not kill her youthful children they could ultimately finally end up in hell. She felt through killing them she replaced into saving them. i imagine that she had psychological topics from postpartum yet her non secular beliefs made it THAT a lot superior and she went loopy. She believed the devil replaced into chatting with her and telling her to do poor issues. It replaced into all basically quite unhappy, i imagine if the reality about God and who we are replaced into advised, it may quite set us free.

    I wish I felt fear. Maybe then I'd stop being so lazy...

    For me, just hope.
