Keep in mind, Tom, that when you experience fear (your “scary†feeling), it often has little to do with whatever you’ve consciously perceived to be the cause (e.g., Fred’s “precept�).

You're right, I'm sorry. I should not have put thoughts in your head. Since you've not stated your beliefs I channeled my younger self and fell on my Catholic upbringing; I have to resist THAT temptation.
Certainly, instinctive, fight or flight fear is generated as you say. That's not what I'm suffering from. You are still scary but I feel neither compulsion, neither fight nor flight; I guess that's what you excluded by 'often'. I am glad that you're still reading, though.
