Both seem to be useful tools when it comes to, among other things, recruiting and maintaining christianity. Seems that when (many) church leaders use guilt (god died for YOUR sins) and fear (repent or you'll MISS heaven) relatively effectively, they are more successful.
Is it human nature to respond to fear and guilt, or is there something else going on here?
Would using love and acceptance yield more positive results?
Thoughts?
