what are you genuinely afraid of?

[chad]

i am me's thread about dogs got me thinking. i'm pretty much scared of them, i'll admit it.

if you want to say jews, muslims, democrats, unbridled government, fiat money, whatever, that's fine, but i'm kind of wondering what everyday things freak you out. i already know about about the unconstitutional government, zionists, etc.

heights? spiders? snakes? betty white?

[zap]

That's a hard one, cause I don't usually freak out, maybe spaz a little, not a whole lot of things I am scared of. I'll think on it a while.

[LuckyStrike]

I don't really care for heights but its not like a major phobia same with spiders I don't like them but it's not paralyzing by any means.

Those are the 2 that stick out in my mind.

[Phoenix]

People.

Most people scare me. Some here think I'm insane, but if you met me, you'd realize my online persona is different than the "real" me (I'm an odd-ball in real life though, too ;D ). But you'd want me around if you were in trouble. I pick up on people's malevolence quickly and easily.

Most people would kill you and laugh, if they could get away with it. I don't believe in the "general goodness of humanity." I believe in the general badness of humanity. In the past, it might have been true most people were moral, but that's long gone.

[chad]

hey, i kind of believe that as well. most people are seriously shitty if you give them the chance.

my opinion of people has gone down drastically the last 2 or 3 years.

[Liquid]

Flying bugs/moths. I had a moth fly into my ear one time, it crawled in. Was on the ear drum, sounded like a helicopter, it was so loud.

All the folks at the ER, thought I was on drugs when I went in there. Finally, some gal took a look in my ear, her face when white and she fled the room. Later a doctor came in and was able to kill the damn thing before I went insane.

Anything that flys next to my ear, freaks the hell out of me.

[willie pete]

snakes, not to phobic levels, but the first thing I think of when I see a snake; is to kill it....as mentioned heights, not flying, heights, like say climbing up a 1000 ft radio tower to change a light bulb :D or walking out on a cable of a suspension bridge like this....spiders never bothered me, I guess 'cause they're so small and easy to squash :D also small, confined spaces (like being locked up in a coffin) push my "panic-attack" button :D Next time you're at Disney (EPCOT) ride "Mission Space" I thought I was gonna freak-out on it, I didn't though :D

[StackerKen]

I gave it some thought.... I love dogs and have never been afraid of them...I think dogs like me too ;D

I like heights...snakes and bugs don't bother me...Cept maybe if I had a bug in my ear...lol

I'm a bit shy...But I'm not afraid of people....I'm certainly not afraid of them killing me

huh.......

I don't think im afraid of anything :)

[Grand Master Melon]

Roaches and beetles freak me out.

I think the thing I have the hardest time with is a fear of falling/heights. I don't actually mind being in high places ie planes, the space needle, or other large buildings but I don't like getting close to the windows in large buildings.

One year when my father was living in an apartment building we went up to the roof to watch fireworks and some moron lady kept holding her kid on the edge and letting this toddler just sit there like 20 stories up. Regardless of the fact that she was holding the kid by its sides I was freaking out the whole time. I seriously wanted to snatch the kid and beat the lady down but I just kept backing further and further away towards the center of the roof because I didn't want to freak out more or see the kid fall.

This fear has gotten progressively worse over my lifetime.

[Gaillo]

Irrationality, along with its ugly consequences - coercion and fraud.

[platinumdude]

Of not pleasing God the way I should.

[Luis337]

I'm not really scared of dogs, but they don't really seem to like me. I don't like snakes at all. I am good at killing roaches. Formula 88 does it in seconds. My cat is also good at it. She got a big one that came in the house when our bathtub faucet broke.

[Apparition]

Ghosts. I'm somewhat of a spiritual person but I fear the unknown and somewhat believe that souls exist.

I also fear burglars and loiterers, especially at night, because I'm somewhat paranoid and suspicious that there are always people out there seeking to harm and torture others for their own sadistic reasons.

[dysgenic]

For me it's driving with other people, especially on the highway and especially on long drives. I can't believe how poorly some (most?) people drive. My wife and I constantly fight about this... she actually thinks she is a good driver and she is absolutely horrible. Funny thing is, she thinks I'm horrible. Except her rationale for me being horrible is completely absurd, where mine is logical. Honestly though, I get so nervous at times with certain people that I've told people to pull over to the side of the road and let me out.

[shakinginmyshoes]

I'm terrified of becoming a minority in my own country.

By 2040, or maybe long before, non-Whites will numerically outnumber Whites in U.S.

I've seen enough posts and videos of "marches" making demands for "rights" from Mexicanos to know, this is going to be a very bad for
my children.

The first step in genocide is losing control of your country's institutions. Done.
Then invaders will demonize (Whitey is raaaaccciiissst. Whitey is the cause of all non-Whites' troubles. Whitey stole everything they have and we're going to take it from them.) Done.
Then they will marginalize. (Democracy? Well, too bad, Gringo, we can outvote you, and our politicians don't believe in goofy ideas like the rights of the individual) Underway.

And the endgame is,

Then they will outlaw you. And since violation of the law outlawing you will be prison and then death, well, the fema camps around the U.S. will come in handy for them.

Not the fake ones in the movies, but the real ones amongst us that look just like us.

The ones like Milgram identified in his obedience experiments. (http://psychology.about.com/od/historyofpsychology/a/milgram.htm)

[Neuro]

When I was a toddler I was really scared of the vacum cleaner, not so much any longer.

A bit older I was terrified being pulled into the bathtub drain, not anymore.

When I was 4 I was bitten by a horse, and I haven't felt comfortable in their company much since then, but I can handle it...

When I started swimming at the age of 6-7 I was afraid of a pike coming and biting me in the heel of the foot, sometimes I am thinking about that still when swimming in a lake, but it would never stop me from swimming in a lake...

At the age of 17 I fell down a height and broke half my body, slipping, while attemting to climb down. It wouldn't stop me from climbing down heights today, but I do it very carefully.

Around the age of 20 I had a root canal without analgesia, and that was the reason why I didn't go to the dentist for 10 years or so. Nowadays I go, but I always clench my fists when having dental work done.

Never liked certain bugs like spiders, but it is usually my job to take care of the problem when they get into the house.

I think it is the job of the parents to force their children to face their phobias!

[1970 silver art]

Snakes scare me. It does not matter what type of snake it is. I am afraid of flying. I have never gotten on an airplane and I do not plan to get on a plane because of my fear of flying among other things.

[Serpo]

what are you genuinely afraid of?

Questions like this basically.

I can only think of things that I am maybe afraid of in my mind from memory.

But true fear is not from memory but rather it is experienced in the moment and is truly terrifying at the time.Real fear is an emotion which we have available that helps us survive ,it can make us more alert.

People can say what they are genuinely afraid of and there can be countless things to be afraid of but really these things are often memories from the past.I have plenty who hasnt as it can be a scary business this living.

On the other hand fear is always going to be an emotion and until something triggers it we have peace.Until we have real fear we may just have dullness or normal awareness.People pay good money at shows and to watch horror movies to get frightened to have fear ,its big business now days ,an industry.

People now days we live on fear ,it stimulates the adrenal glands ,kicks us into action ,in our daily lives................the fear of failing ,so many fears so little time.......hahahahah

[EE_]

Things I'm afraid of:

I'm afraid of lending money to a bank at .001 % interest (i.e.. deposits, savings, etc.)

I'm afraid to trust any word that comes out a politician's mouth

I'm afraid to trust any cop.

I'm afraid to believe any word that comes from a Zionists.

I'm afraid of what any GM food (Monsanto controlled) will do to my health.

I'm afraid that no one will ever stand up and take the country back from the elite Zionist Jews/Ashkenazi Khazars.

I'm afraid the world will not rid the planet of the parasites that rob your wealth and burn the parasitic institutions to the ground.

I'm afraid the government will one day come for your guns.

I'm afraid the only way to restore privacy to the people will be from a massive X50 class solar coronal mass ejection.

I'm afraid most of the military are to far programmed to turn on those that force them to murder and die in the name of Israel.

I'm afraid the freemasons are all homosexuals and wish to infect the rest of society/church/government with their evil perversion. (Don't think they are homo's?...prove me wrong!)

I'm afraid the complete collapse will not come soon enough and the slow rot will continue to last for years allowing the elite complete control.

I'm afraid God will not correct his defective creation of humanity in time for me to see it.

I'm afraid the majority of women will never return to the beautiful soft loving family keepers they once were.

I'm afraid Charlie McGrath will be in the news soon for some crazy trumped up charge.

I'm afraid our system of laws is completely broken beyond repair and will always favor the elite that bought it off.

I'm afraid there will never again in my life be a president to hold office that stands for the people and against the evil cabal, post JFK...and survive assignation.

I'm afraid we will never get the truth about the Holohoax and 9/11

Yep, I can say that he is telling the truth. And I have to say in many ways I agree with him. I can only be around "outside" people for so long before I just need to get away.

[stillwondering]

On a simple level, I am afraid of spiders.

If you really want to get a bit more serious, I am afraid of myself. I am too trusting and then I learn later that I should have listened to the warnings others had told me about. Being as I had gone to school so I could be a pre-school teacher, I learned to be accepting and tolerant of people of all walks of life, nationalities, religions and so forth. With children, especially the younger ones, that can work on a whole. But like puppies and kittens, they grow up and take on a life or personality of their own...they are not so cute anymore.

I fear of being lied to.
I fear of being betrayed.
I fear of being let down.
I fear that my efforts will be wasted because someone does not feel that something is as important as I see it so they let it go.
I fear that the reality of the world falling apart is going to become too much for me.

I fear my children will not have a chance at life like I had when I was growing up. Things are so different now, it seems no matter how prepared you are, it is not enough.

:boohoo

[Stop Making Cents]

I'm afraid this nice white town i live in will become infected with blacks and coalburners. Hasn't happened yet.

[sunshine05]

My biggest fear is of closed in spaces and crowds. I used to have panic attacks but now can calm myself down but I still hate it.

[Libertytree]

Of being in a position as to not be able to protect myself or those around me.

When I was in my early 20's I was targeted to be murdered and disappeared, my gf and her sister were kidnapped and it was set up so that it would look like I had left the area when they returned to the scene. I had a very bad feeling that day and didn't listen to my gut instincts and it very nearly got me killed. I was young and niave, I let my guard down based on the assumptions of others, very bad move!

I fought for my life that day, was almost drowned and beaten to death, was hunted like an animal and survived purely on my wits. I vowed to never let myself be put in any similar situation again, ever. It taught me several valuable lessons though and they have served me very well since then. Number 1 on that list is that I trust my "gut" implicitly.

[JDRock]

i was staying the night on the queen mary, allegedly one of the most haunted places on earth....i went out at night by myself looking down abandoned areas of the ship....there was a palpable oppression about the place...ALL the staff believed the place was haunted....i didnt find any ghosts, but in one place i came upon a staff member working quietly near a closet area, and i yelled BOO! scared the sheeeeiiite out of her ( me bad).
i have absolutely no fear of the supernatural but a lil spider will often make me jump.

I don't mind telling the story at all, I think about it from time to time and I think it helps me remain alert. It's a Loooong story though and would take pages to fully tell, there's much more to it, much of it brutal and sadistic and I really think I should refrain from posting it. It plays like a horror movie or a twisted novel that I wouldn't wish on anyone, except those that perpetrated it. If by some chance ya catch me over a few cold ones I'd be happy to elaborate.

I'm not "afraid" of the South Africanization of America, because I know that will be the end, literally, of the entire world. All Hell breaks loose. I know it's coming. I don't like being right about such things.

When we moved here, we saw a Black about once per week, and then, a decent Black, usually from Africa. Now, it's about a dozen per day, all Niqqers, not respectable Blacks. And at the local community college, they've imported a whole zoo from the Bay Area, and they're running rampant on campus, doing their "thang." Plenty of coalburners throwing themselves at them, too.

My wife is 7 months pregnant with our first and now I'm afraid of the world I might leave to him. I'm sure my father had the same type of fear but it worked out alright.

you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. ..."

I don't see anything in that statement that would imply that this little girl had to ask God for anything.

Just more bs. Can't get away from it,even here at GSUS.



I know, lets all burn some Qurans and drop some nukes on the evil boogey man living in a mud hut in the the poorest nation in the world. That will fix it.

Our way is the only way,and everyone elses way is the devils brew.

Sorry to the OP. I did not really mean to hyjack the thread,i just hate bullsh*t!





Wow sorry Millwright. I didn't mean to upset you.

What I posted is Not Bullsh*t...It is what I believe. God is my strength.

I think God was with Jaycee Dugard whether she asked him to be or not.

Like Phoenix (sorta)pointed out, This world we live in is corrupted
But God will restore it someday.

Most bad things which happen do so because God gives a radical freedom to people
We are free people, not puppets on a string.

I am not saying I understand it ...I'm saying I Trust God...and I do not fear this world.

That is why I posted those bible verses.

Would you deprive me of this comfort?



I agree that it was a terrible thing that poor girl had to go though

But like I said, I think God was with her though it all, giving her strength. And she (and her daughters) seem to be doing ok now.

I think God kept her alive for a reason

And I know it doesn't make up for what happened to her, but she did just get 20 million dollars from the state.

And what I think is a miracle is, that she is able smile for the media cameras

Hope she puts some of that 20 million into gold.

Pray all you want, you gotta help yourself. What is it,
God helps he who helps himself ? don't sit around waiting for God to fix something.

If I have one thing to fear, it is dying before I get my daughter raised and leaving her an orphan.

But I don't really fear that a whole lot, I'm pretty healthy..... unless I get hit by a train.

Yeah so do we so why don't you GTFO out of the thread, if you have a problem with a member send them a PM or put them on ignore.

Thats where the "strength" and "No fear" parts come in handy Zap :)



God, grant us the...
Serenity to accept things we cannot change,
Courage to change the things we can, and the
Wisdom to know the difference
Patience for the things that take time
Appreciation for all that we have, and
Tolerance for those with different struggles
Freedom to live beyond the limitations of our past ways, the
Ability to feel your love for us and our love for each other and the
Strength to get up and try again even when we feel it is hopeless.

Not instigating anything, just heard my dad say that the whole time growing up and its a bit false. Same with cleanliness in next to godliness (hehe) It actually goes, God helps those who turn to him for help. Kind of like the with God you can move mountains, but expect him to toss you a shovel.

Those verses speak to people who already have a relationship with God.

If you want to get away from all forms of spirituality, you're going to have to hide in the woods. Spirituality is central to the lives of most people, even those who don't believe in God.



i just hate bullsh*t!


That people have faith in God? That people believe in God? That you're concerned that there just might be a God? Did something happen in your life that you feel God let you down about?

2012
and what might be in store for the planet as a whole


Can I have your property on December 22, 2012? ;D

[Libertytree]

I'll tell ya what, that day, God never took the ass kicking I did, I took it all on my very own. I never had time to ask for anything, help included. BUT...I will say this, I was beat to a ragdoll pulp but everytime I got hit with blows I thought were gonna take me out I grew stronger, that dude hit me with a rock approx 16in x 10 x 5in in the face and on the 3rd lick the rock cracked in half! he freaked out and I was just purely pissed and I wore his ass out with half the rock he just drilled me with.

I don't know if it was divine intervention that day/night but for being in a really fvcked up position I did come out of it alive, somehow.

Roaches and beetles freak me out.

I think the thing I have the hardest time with is a fear of falling/heights. I don't actually mind being in high places ie planes, the space needle, or other large buildings but I don't like getting close to the windows in large buildings.

One year when my father was living in an apartment building we went up to the roof to watch fireworks and some moron lady kept holding her kid on the edge and letting this toddler just sit there like 20 stories up. Regardless of the fact that she was holding the kid by its sides I was freaking out the whole time. I seriously wanted to snatch the kid and beat the lady down but I just kept backing further and further away towards the center of the roof because I didn't want to freak out more or see the kid fall.

This fear has gotten progressively worse over my lifetime.


this is me as well when it comes to heights.


Reading that made me think of this poor little kid. :o

If you really want to get a bit more serious, I am afraid of myself. I am too trusting and then I learn later that I should have listened to the warnings others had told me about. Being as I had gone to school so I could be a pre-school teacher, I learned to be accepting and tolerant of people of all walks of life, nationalities, religions and so forth. With children, especially the younger ones, that can work on a whole. But like puppies and kittens, they grow up and take on a life or personality of their own...they are not so cute anymore.

Being too trusting to strangers, as most of us has been taught from early on to give everyone the benefit of the doubt, is indeed a big problem. Basically we have been taught to disregard our instincts.

Trust your inborn instincts, you can judge a persons character by a quick glance on that person, less than 2 seconds, and you will innately know what kind of person the stranger you have infront of you is, and you will almost never be proven wrong.

meth users.

for example -

recommended reading. Janina's hands and feet were found in a backpack near Oceanside, California.

the article tells the story of her murder and the trial of her murderers (and former housemates).

it makes the Manson's look almost wholesome.

Murky water. When I was young, I was forced to swim through some murky, dark water that had "floor to ceiling" kelp growing in it. I was under 10 years old and the kelp started wrapping around my body and it was scary as shit. I'm a very strong swimmer but that was an absolutely bullshit experience.

[k-os]

I was afraid of heights, but I made it my mission to overcome it, so I went to the tallest building in every city I visited, and got as close to the window as I could. I made progress, and eventually I went skydiving and hang gliding (way better than skydiving, btw.)

Now I am afraid of public speaking (thank goodness I am a nerd and don't need to do that ever), and I am afraid of crowds. I do not enjoy (nor typically attend) concerts or crowded festivals. We have an awesome garlic festival in a nearby town every year, but the streets get so crowded that I get uncomfortable, so I don't go. However, there are art festivals on a road parallel to the beach that I have no problem with. I think for me, it's all about having an escape, just in case.

I am not afraid of spiders, but if I walk face-first into a web outside my house, I will scream and dance around like a lunatic. There are tons of spider webs waiting for my face to walk into them, so as soon as I walk out of my house, I swing my arms like a windmill.

Oh, and roaches - they're the only thing that I kill on site, no questions asked.

[Ponce]

I was afraid of AID and canser.....no longer have sex so that AID is out......now only canser.

k-os? for me mosquitos.....I just slap them and keep on walking.

One thing that I'm terrified of is not being able to get up for work in the morning. I have NEVER been able to consistently get up early for ANYTHING in my entire life. Setting an alarm does help- sometimes- but if I am too tired I'll sleep right through it. This has been a problem for me my entire life.

[TomLandrysHat]

I fear I may live an entire lifetime and never have an original thought.

That, and megatsunamis.

[mightymanx]

Spiders, incoming artillery, IED's, being burned to death, IE flame thrower, trapped in a burning car etc.

I am not actually afraid of them, but seeing footage of those great big monitor lizards triggers some sort of primal response in me. Lizards are NOT supposed to be that big!!!
