'''Anxiety''' afflicts almost everyone in some way. It affects how people feel and behave; anxiety has very real physical symptoms. Mild anxiety is vague and unsettling, while severe anxiety can be extremely debilitating. As with any [[addiction]], anxiety can be overwhelming and harmful to one's physical health. '''''Most anxiety can be the result of a misunderstanding -- or rejection -- of fundamental [[truth]]''''''.

A [[liberal denial]] of [[infinity]] and [[eternal life]] can be the root of anxiety. The [[Gospel of Mark]] has an early description of anxiety as part of a [[parable]]: "Other seed fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it yielded no grain."<ref>{{bibleref|Mark|4|7}} ([[ESV]]). The [[Gospel of Matthew]] then repeated this at {{bibleref|Matthew|13|7}}, and the [[Gospel of Luke]] repeates this at {{bibleref|Luke|8|7}}. Notice how all three [[Gospels]] recite this same verse about anxiety at the [[prime number]] of verse 7.</ref>
