Human fears range from ones as unrealistic as the fear of household spiders to fairly profound ones such as the death of a spouse or a child. Yet, almost everyone seems to have one biggest fear or another.

I’ve heard it said that the #1 fear people have is public speaking … and that death is #2! As Jerry Seinfeld says, that means someone would rather be in the casket than doing the eulogy!
Personally, my biggest fear isn’t public speaking, it’s going to a social event like a party where I don’t know anyone. I really hate that!
Oh yes, and death too … I don’t think people spend much time thinking about death; maybe if we did we’d live our lives a bit differently!
Public speaking I understand. It used to be one of my greatest fears as well, not anymore since i joined toastmaster’s club :)) I would like to recommend to everyone, it really works!
But why would Christians fear death? Doesn’t it mean reunion with God?
A Christian wouldn’t fear death (at least not in the sense of being worried about what will happen afterwards); however I’d say that someone who is not sure about what will happen after death should be worried about it.
I don’t think anyone can accurately tell what happens after death, christian or no christian. It maybe actually easier for non christian, since they don’t have to be worried about “hell”.
My greatest fears are heights and snakes – check out my blog for the encounters I’d had
