That's very generous of you and we do so apprecaite the chance to live, unless of course we are a threat to Christians, but it seems you are being much too generous in light of what the Book of Myths prescribes for unbelievers:
McCauley above quoting Revelations 21, "The fearful, unbelieving...shall have their part in the lake which burneth fire and brimstone (hell)".
Are you McCauly one of those examples of a Christian being better than the God you worship?
A threat to anybody is defensible period!
As for the lake of fire, well literally seen, it is as described, but spiritually seen, it is a fire that is never quenched.
What does that mean?
All completed vessels the potter makes are done in the furnace.
The furnace of God is as like a lake of fire where all sin is burned off and the vessel is made clean and pure: fit for the glory of God.
God is an all consuming fire, as fire that burns at the heart, that convicts of sin, that leads to repentance from sin, a fire which lives from generation to generation, and dies not.
It is the the conscience of all that is good, the part of the tree that is good and not evil.
The part that burns in believers and unbelievers alike, without distinction.
A threat to Christians is not a proper phrase, because it gives to indicate that Christians are the only good folk.
But rather, it should read, "a threat to life" giving to indicate without distinction.
Christianity teaches forgiveness, to love our enemies, yet, a threat to life maybe still be defensible, but not using religion as an excuse.
