Yes, it has, but from the other view, you still haven't explained why it should frighten you? Are you frightened by the knowledge that while you are sleeping, a man in some other part of the world will die? I am not, although I would say sad might fit, if I were to find out. And I would say that thinking about the end of the world saddens me but not scares me.
As for your sociopath comment, I am not one either, and yet I never once have feared about the end of the world. Not due to a religious belief, but because, I personally gain nothing from that fear. And interestingly, you imply that someone who sees life that way a sociopath, while I make no implication about a person with a different view. I don't understand your fear anymore than you understand my lack of fear. I accept your view as a reasonable human reaction, I would think you could afford me the same courtesy.
