One phrase got me thinking. "God fearing men...". Of course, being an atheist, this doesn't apply to my worldview. But to the majority I wonder if they ever spent much time thinking about it? I always thought this relationship of fear/love was rather strange. Normally, people who are presented a fearful situation react in a flight or fight manner. But neither option is open to theists if they believe their god is all-powerful and everywhere. It seems to infantilize the relationship and cast it in the light of being with an abusing parent. At the same time there is the cognitive dissonance of loving this fearful entity. Most peculiar.

That is why the Lord said "narrow is the gate to eternal life and few find it." The answers are there.
