Awe

Awe is an emotion comparable to wonder but less joyous, and more fearful or respectful. In general awe is directed at objects considered to be more powerful than the subject, such as the breaking of huge waves on the base of a rocky cliff, or the thundering roar of a massive waterfall. The Great Pyramid of Giza, the Grand Canyon, or the vastness of open space in the cosmos are all places or concepts which would typically inspire awe. Awe is defined in Robert Plutchik's Wheel of emotions as a combination of surprise and fear.

Psychologists have noted that awe can inspire. When asked to describe themselves while viewing an awe-inspiring sight (such as a dinosaur skeleton), test subjects were more likely to describe themselves in oceanic terms (eg "I am an inhabitant of the planet Earth") as opposed to more specific terms (eg "I have blonde hair").

Do you stand in awe of the work required to remove moocher sucklings from the taxpayer teat?
Q. I think it's enormous, which has me wondering why the political schmucks who helped create this mess are on vacation and not rolling up their sleeves and getting to work plucking the moochers off the teat.

A. Do you understand that the military which protects our boarders costs money, that the police that keep our streets safe costs money, that the schools which educates our kids costs money, that the roads that we drive on costs money... I could go on, but I think you understand what I'm saying... You may want to live as they did in colonel times, you may even want to trade your car in for a horse, and your computer for piece of paper and an ink feather, but Not I!

Is awe the quintessential religious emotion?
Q. Not that awe is inherently religious (as most people understand it) but that the point of religions is to foster, explain, and manage the emotion of awe.
Asked by Citizen Of The Cosmos - Mon Aug 25 20:48:10 2008 - Religion & Spirituality - 5 Answers - Comments

A. No, given how many religious persons try to force their views into the laws of their nations, its fair to say that *arrogance* is the quintessential religious emotion & expression. Feh.
