I watch a debate between john lennox (prof of math)and peter atkin (prof of chem),and one of the point atkin brought out was that fear is what drove us to religion.
I admit that for me it is, but is it un natural?
Admit it that hard wired withing our core is a healthy respect for our welfare. We decide, behave and carries every moves to promote this welbeing. We nevigate our self out of the path of a truck tundering down the highway. Even when the road is empty, we make a habit of not walking in the center...it is not cowardly...it is wise.
Believe in a religion through some fear is natural, does not take away the honesty of our motivation, does not stain the believe or diminish its sincerety.
A good proverb says..the fear of the Almighty is the begining of wisdom
