It's really easy to have no fear when nothing really horrible is happening to you. Fear is a natural response to extreme life threatening situations- and it has a survival function. The adrenaline pumped into your system can help you act faster, and stronger, than you normally would. If you don't have a little fear you might just get a little dead. That's not to say that there aren't people who are overly fearful- those people with phobias, for example, and people who have too little fear (danger seekers)- but those are just the aberrant extremes for what is, in the vast center, an adaptive behavior. This is probably pointless since you are just as irrational as any mainstream religious zealot I've ever bumped into here- but I put it out there because it needs to be said. Hopefully it will act as a counterweight to your extremely irrational flow. Although, at least you don't seem to hate anyone. That's a good thing. I guess if there have to be zealots (and if I didn't have to listen to them, or read them, or ever see them) you would be the best kind to have.
