Most of our fears can be out into 2 categories- What we don't understand, and what we cannot control.
I'll take "Ignorance is bliss" for 400, Alex!

Knowledge can be dangerous. Ever read the book "The Man Who Knew TOO Much?"
But ironically I'm still more fearful of the unknown, but not much.

I know what I know. So I guess I am more fearful of what I don't know, but I am working on getting all the answers. Eventually I will be all knowing (Wishful thinking).

What I do know, for sure. Call it (bad) luck of the draw, but I've had a loooong string of traumatic experiences. They have made me fearful. I'm workin' on it though.

The unknown can be very frightening because you don't have any cognition about what you are confronting or what lies before you or what the outcome may be. If you know, you can better address and deal with something.

Yay! An excuse to quote, Lao Tzu - "Those who have knowledge, don't predict. Those who predict, don't have knowledge." What does that mean? I have no idea. But it sure does sound like a cool answer to your question.
