I don't think that he is saying not to fear death because it is nothing to us. I think he suggesting to fear it because life is everything to us. I really don't think Epicurus came to his opinions on "how one should be" by not fearing...else his philosophy would have come off much more nihilistic. I don't think anyone could come to the conclusion of being healthy without fear. I just think Epicurus didn't believe in a God...instead, consequences.
