Which Future Fear do You Fear More?

---

I have encountered articles and discussions suggesting that fearing terrorist is irrational, even bordering on paranoia. The major source of that fear is the notion of a terrorist possessing a nuclear weapon. We cannot ignore the potential of millions beheaded in a moment.

I have also encountered articles and discussions suggesting that fearing global warming is irrational, even bordering on paranoia. The major source of that fear is the notion of a rise in sea levels. We cannot ignore the potential of relocating millions of people in the future.

May I assume from your response that you fear terrorist more than you fear global warming for the reasons you cited?

A very astute observation in my opinion but which do you fear more?

The terrorist scenario - I won't fear what I don't believe to be non-existent.

Food for thought on fear in general:

- Fear knocked. Faith answered. There was nobody there.

- Worry is like making advance payment on something you're not likely to get anyway. Mark Twain
