Why should anyone that is a good person, keeps to himself,and bothers nobody FEAR your god. I read your comments and cannot see anything more than a person promoting another ideology of fear towards an imaginary boogey man.

I try to respect peoples beliefs(I am agnostic) but when they start talking about the "fear" of god they just loose my respect,and I want nothing to do with them or their religions,it just triggers major alarms in my head and fear of THEM,and what they might be capable in the name of their "god",like "humane" and "painless" albeit "messy" beheadings that you mentioned in another one of your frightening comments.
