I don't think white_painted_lady was saying she was afraid. I read it more like she is able to get mobilized during moments of extreme danger - perhaps because of her faith.

Generalist - have you heard of the "Push me Pull you" in Dr. Do Little. This is an animal with a head at each end. http://www.tzanis.org/tzanisblog/archives/images/push-pull-thumb.jpg

This is a very good question!
All negative feelings are fear-related...Or to say anger roots from fear.
Once a person becomes conscious or afraid to loose something - position, integrity, material treasure, or even face,..hate steps in. His awareness of the fact that someone might replace him,..or his title or possession might be taken off his convenience sends shivers of fear deep down and he starts sowing hated against people of rivalry. He tends to fight back or make defense in a very aggressive manner --- anger. An anger which may not be vocal at all, but rather secretly eating sanity up within...which is more dangerous when unleashed.

Anger causes a reaction of fear, and fear can lead to anger. There is no necessary causal relation between the two, contrary to popular belief. There are those who refuse to react, having no need. There is such a thing as righteous anger, but most angry people are totally unrighteous. Fear is a natural reaction, and in response to danger a helpful one, but dysfunctional when it is a primary motivation. There is also a type of fear which is an attitude of respect that is appropriate and life-giving. This is not the fear engendered by overwielding power or violence, that type is death-dealing and needs to be responded to by anger.

Anger is sometimes the proactive form of fear. If someone is trying to beat you up, and you become terrified, you might literally be unable to defend yourself because of your fear. If you allow yourself to become angry, you might at least be able to fight the attacker off.
Also, as another person has said, fear can generate anger when you don't want to admit to being afraid of something.
Both of these emotions can be managed by feeling sufficient love, because love entails thinking of others before yourself. That can enable you to act assertively rather than agressively and without so much fear.

When I move quick it is usually because the window of perfect opportunity comes and there it is I must get the job done. I move off of FAITH. Movement like that does give off the image it is out of fear or anger.

Did someone ever say 'offence is the best form of defence'? Or, is it other way round (in different situation)? Figure it out!!!

Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to suffering.

People tend to dislike and be upset by what they are afraid of or do not understand.

"Anger is the Guru of sin."
"Fear is that which follows in the shadow of anger."
