FEAR

'It resembles nothing so much as the disturbing lack of faith in Christianity that puts the darkest interpretation on social change, religious diversity, foreign influence, the implications of science, and so much else besides. If Christianity expresses the nature and will of God, and if Christ will be with us until the end of the age, why all this fear?'
Marilynne Robinson, 'Wondrous love' in When I Was a Child I Read Books, p.138.
