ChesneyChrist: God-fearing is very old-fashioned coming from a time when there wasn't much to reward people. They had to be much more serious about the threat of hell fire.
Problem being that it doesn't work well against psychopaths because taking a threat seriously is not really possible. Psychopaths blend seamlessly into the modern world because of incentives, because of profit. You can pay them to behave as we move toward the society of reward. Here's a medal for being a law abiding citizen.

tomcatty: God-fearing is the wrong term, certainly, life and the universe are a mystery an enigma to which we don't have the answer . I have a feeling the real truth will be something we don't have the intellectual capability to comprehend at the moment
Yes, I like that enigma and mystery because it brings about curiosity and further learning.
I’ve lived in very religious countries and to understand religion is a benefit to understanding culture, habits, educations and so much more.
I don't care for people who "fear God" or wants someone who "fears God". Why, because they did something bad? I like people who love God and fear the devil.
