We are afraid of the wrong things.

We are afraid of doing things known as wrong in society. The reason for this is that we know that the consequences of doing wrong things are detrimental. Let’s say you are caught taking money from your best friend’s piggybank while visiting her house. She would feel betrayed and angry.
Stealing is perceived as wrong in society and when caught in action, you will be labelled as a thief. Being caught stealing will make you untrustworthy. People will distance themselves from you and your relationships with them will be in jeopardy.
The cost of defeating the ends of justice is even more severe. Imagine being pulled of the road by a traffic officer for reckless driving only to discover that you had one drink too many. You get arrested for drinking and driving and detained for the entire weekend. Firstly, you will have a criminal record in your name and secondly, two days of your life are wasted locked up in a smelly holding sell sleeping on concrete floors.
Yes, we are afraid to do wrong things because the consequences are usually hostile.
