“… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.
And remember - God is Love you fucking assholes. Seriously you dimwitted jerk, you should believe in the loving GOD i am bashing you over the head about because if you DONT you will be endlessly tortured until you are dead, then revived then tortured until you are dead again and repeat - for ETERNITY!!! You don't want to be burned to 'death' every day for all of existence, do you, you shit-head?? You BETTER just decide to believe in this WONDERFUL LOVING supportive Christian experience I HAVE! See? My life is SO FULL OF LOVE and honest CARING that I'm reminding you that you are worthless unless you agree with me!

That's never been my contention, ever... (and not insinuating you were specifically aiming that at me.)
And I've always included the qualifier that I'm not a perfect Christian, and I don't "turn the other cheek." You treat me like shit, I treat you like shit, and if you don't think that's very Christian like, well, I really don't care. I'll apologize to the Lord later for defending myself and hope he understands.
I do get your point though, and really do agree. I've heard plenty of preachers use the hell fire and damnation speeches, and then turn around and give us the "God is love" line. This is one of the things I debate with my son, who is a newly full blown, consumed with the Bible, YEC cult, zealot. I don't believe for one second that a person needs to go to such extremes to enter the gates of heaven.

Clearly Jesus preached love and forgiveness, among many other "quiet" virtues, as I think of them. And I 1000% per cent believe that we must by example reflect Christ's love and humility, or we do more harm than good. So, excellent point, Darin.
I would only add that I personally believe that generally speaking, Christ would prefer passionate discourse to calm indifference.
