Where did we go wrong?

So I guess scientists have discovered that through evolution, the fear of snakes and spiders has been ingrained into our brains during fetal development. Something that goes along the lines of "if we were still wild animals, we'd be able to instinctually recognize reptiles and spiders as a threat to our survival as some of them are lethal, and the brain's immediate response is that of fear." And I guess this development is still in play today, as their studies showed.

I guess that explains why the majority of the Earth's population sees a snake and wets their pants.

Where the heck did all of us go wrong? Is it a possibility that we all missed out on that part of our brain's development? Who knows, because I know for sure that I'm terrified of spiders -- but give me a spider ball python ANY day and I'm a happy girl.
