Hi Craig Weinberg

I had been talking about fear of God, but fear of the law
(meaning fear of diobeying the law) helps keep our streets
safer.


Only the laws coherent with a (reasonable) constitution.

Again, no reason to fear them, as they protect you and your freedom.

Wrong!

     Fear of those things that will kill you is healthy. This is why
pain exists.

Then we should promote a crippling fear of fast food and a stressful, sedentary lifestyle.

It is important to be able to pay attention to what is dangerous and to be able to act responsibly toward it, but there's no reason to ornament it with any sentiment or patriotism. I have no problem avoiding things that can kill me without nurturing fears about them.
