2.4 Concepts of Sensation

Article 37 - Fear

Canon 944 (link)

Fear, is one (1) of six (6) emotions of influence and control used by minorities in power to manipulate populations by modifying the six (6) ancient primordial biological emotions. Fear or constant “stress” is based on the primary primordial emotion of anxiety as distressing negative sensation and potentially crippling emotional state of the mind and body induced by a perceived threat in the mind.

Canon 945 (link)

The word Fear originates from the 1st Millenium BCE ancient Gaelic word fear meaning “faithful man or brave man; faithful or honorable bloodshed or slaughter; ground” from fe meaning “faith, bravery, belief” and ar meaning “for, on, upon, bloodshed, massacre, our, slaughter”.

Canon 946 (link)

Following the commencement in the 12th Century CE of constant mercenary invasions of Ireland, the word "fear" to the invaders came to mean “calamity, sudden danger and risk of death” on account of the Irish warriors and their resistance.

Canon 947 (link)

In the 16th Century , the circular meaning of "Fear" was applied meaning "the state of fearing something, especially a mingled feeling of dread and reverence towards God, or formerly any rightful authority."

Canon 948 (link)

Identical to anxiety being the prime emotion of all ancient biological emotions, Fear is the prime emotion used by many states in order to influence their populations into predictable behaviour.

Canon 949 (link)

The constant use of Fear requires the constant invention of new images for the mind to Fear. Therefore, states that constantly use Fear as a primary lever of authority must maintain a close relationship with creative storytellers and means of publication / broadcasting new elaborate Fears.

Canon 950 (link)

The deficiency of Fear is that over time a population becomes gradually immune to Fear, requiring either a complete and deliberate destruction of social fabric followed by reconstruction of a controlled society or the inevitable loss of power by those addicted to using Fear.

Canon 951 (link)

In accordance with these canons, the deliberate use of Fear as a tool of statecraft, control, governance, influence or manipulation is rebrobate, forbidden and not permitted to be revived.
