Because our every day lives are mundane and average, and we expect what is to happen. When this regularity is disrupted, we begin to fear. Disruption of the everyday norm is quite a fear for us, and for no reason whatsoever. Perhaps people believe that they're being threatened in some way. Maybe believe that by disrupting their everyday something is to happen. People fear the unexpected. They don't know what will happen if a certain thing changes. Sometimes these fears are irrational, as we call it, but nothing is irrational about a feeling that makes you scream, and act in the way those people act. We fear, because we change, and that is the inevitability of it all. We are bound to fear, regardless.

Usually, people fear either because they don't know about something or they know too much about it. Kids fear the monsters under the bed because they know nothing about them...what they look like, what they'll do...it doesn't matter whether they exist or not, just that they could be anything or do anything. Some things are scary, and when you do know a lot about a scary subject, you begin to fear it the more you know. Knowledge is a scary thing sometimes...

Fear is a chain reaction in the brain that starts with a stressful stimulus and ends with the release of chemicals that cause a racing heart, fast breathing and energized muscles, among other things, also known as the fight-or-flight response.

we fear because if we didn't the we would be reckless beings who would probably end up killing ourselves :P
but seriously, think of what would happen if we didn't fear jumping off the empire state building with a parachute that was too small? or if we didn't fear walking straight into a fire bare nekked?
think about it :P

it is our natural instincts to fear, like when you thick some ones watching you, see a spider are up high, or are in a small space. It is left over from our caveman ancestors
