Why Are We So Afraid Of The Cop But Don't Fear God Almighty?

   I find it interesting that people would go out and buy radar detectors. Why worry about the cops if you go the speed limit, right? It is also interesting how the rate of speed of cars goes down when a cop becomes visible.
  But what I find even more amazing is how we aren't concerned with the fact that God knows when we're speeding. Even if a cop isn't around, God knows when we are speeding. Everything we do goes onto our 'permanent record' so to speak.
  So, why do we fear cops when they become visible, yet we don't fear God, who we don't see but is more real? I don't have an answer for the, but I have a feeling that the way our country has turned away from the true and living God, to self-worship has something to do with it.
