Death is still a process. You may not be scared of what comes after death, but can still be scared of dying itself.

Sorry, I don't follow your question. Why can't theists what exactly?

Be scared of dying. The whole context of this thread is someone asking why theists are scared of dying, when the answer is the same reason that atheists are, dying can suck, no one is 100% certain about anything except for zealots, and fear of death fundamentally does not come from the logical part of our brain.
