I'm not too sure about this but isnt there a passage in the Silmarilion which states something along the lines of mortality being a gift to men yet Morgoth/Melkors stories and lies made Men come to fear it. Actually now that i think of it this might only have related to fear of night... Great - now i'm all confused <img src=ohwell.gif ALT=":\">
