When one recalls the Interchanging Point of Love vs the nervous system’s perception of outer change, there is no chance for fight or flight to kick in.
Every non-loving thought becomes a barrier to Knowing this Interchanging Love, and every loving thought about re-opens the door to Knowledge of Oneness with Love. Fight or flight is an aspect of giving reality to the “detour into fear” (ACIM) — the fight or flight response is never Known to be appropriate in Truth. Only the normal state of Mind that ever acknowledges Love is appropriate. There is no violence in this state of Mind whatsoever, it is absolute Love in continuous climax with absolute Love.
Jesus Knew, and taught by example as he surrendered the senses and went willingly to the cross, the inappropriateness of extending fight or flight.
