Yes, fear is like hunger, an alibi for the thief to steal or run like a coward. I believe Jesus not only blamed pagans and gentiles for using idols, material needs and other alibis, but He also blamed those using the truth to conduct cruel and unusual punishment... thus defeating the purpose of truth and transforming it into a lie through selective prosecutions etc... This was the gist of the dispute with His Jewish brothers.

So how do we choose? What criteria then helps us choose? Do we have a choice or is it just causality? Clearly we can choose our Prophet. We can choose to adapt ultimately to a Prophet, which means consumption: hence, "This is my flesh and this is my blood" and people get forgiven through Christ's blood, an ultimate consumption of the marriage.

Once that is done, it is most likely that the believer will never again consume what is not of Christ and thus distasteful, and the believer will give up arbitrary alibis to do things. At least this is how I perceive it or how it has been working for me personaly.

Last but not least, there is the mission, which is a further development of this study. Every man on this Earth has a mission, including that of winning converts, or, rather, of urging justice and strength, and not weakness. Doing missionary work in muslim or communist countries must be harrowing, because these people have an ideology that makes them commit murders without skipping a beat. While muslims cannot stand to be in doubt and skipping a beat, thus turning to hotblooded killing to appease the heart, communists are much more cold blooded in their murders, lies and disregard of the truth and true murderers. All these doctrines allow these people to construct an internal structure that will provide them with no alibi to stop, no skipping of beat and no qualms whatsoever in order to kill us.

This is what liberals and liberal unitarian religious movements do not understand: can they eat their own finger out without skipping a beat while intellectualizing the act? If they cannot, they will be deemed unworthy by those motivating them to ignore the crimes thereof.

Christ of course did not need a complicated structure to do what He did and is followers did without skipping a beat, He simply faced the pain and confronted its reality without letting that influence the post-reality, the future reality, i.e the ability to forgive so that no deed becomes an alibi for us to act in this way or that way, but only Christ's word should be our sole reason to act, a faith that for the future it is better and truer to act that way or consider the event that way.

With Christ a perception of the future occurs, a rejection of alibi filled doctrines occurs, and a genuine endorsement and enjoyment of God's blessings occurs, meaning anything that God tells us should be inspired of His blood and flesh becomes edible and welcome healing of pain and suffering.
