They fear just as same as others.

Monks die fearlessly because they have absolutely zero attachments to this physical world. Most monks are not really living and are not experiencing their physical reincarnations. They just exist until they die.
Unlike nuns and missionaries in other religions, most monks do not even contribute anything to humanity. It is all about them trying to go back to the spiritual land where we all came from and where we all go back to anyway.
Waste of physical incarnation is what monk life is.
I say here, most monks but not all monks.
Some monks are spiritual leaders and try to bring enlightenment to humanity. - Like Dalai

This is very true.. considering most monks aren't public figures and just live out their lives in monasteries. Their spirituality and goal in life is focussed on themselves, not on helping society, although it could be said that by living simply they at least contribute very little to an unsustainable society. Also true that some monks are leaders and do contribute to some cause...

iii. The third category of person have their own view about God, have no contact with Him whatsoever, no idea about Karma and Nature's Laws, do not practice prayer/ Yoga, Indulge in sense gratification, violence ( human and animal sacrifice ) meet horrible death.

What is it with you and categories.. OPVerma..?
In practice, you'll find plenty people falling somewhere in between. It's not as if everyone in group I and II have transcended their sensual pleasures, nor is it true that everyone in category III would have no knowledge or never do meditation. Three categories? Probably more like 3x ..... (add any large number).
