Based on the above passages, we can see that villagers' discomfort with the minister's veil is associated with fear of sin and underlying guilt.

We can get this answer because:

  • When the minister begins to wear the black veil, the whole society is surprised and fearful about what it means.
  • That's because the black veil promotes a dark, sinister feel that villagers don't appreciate.
  • People begin to associate this attitude of the minister with sin and at first, they are afraid of sin, as it is against the religious concepts they have adopted.

However, the minister's insistence on wearing the veil begins to remind them that they too have dark secrets, hidden sins, and strong underlying guilt, which they hide from everyone.

It is this guilt that makes the villagers insist that the minister's veil be removed.
