I've debated this with many fundie acquaintances before. What kind of moral restraint does the Christian faith offer if non-belief is a higher crime than any other. That's why TRADITIONAL Christian theology is actually more justified than born-again Christian theology. I would rather see someone burn in hell for killing a bunch of people, instead of burning in hell for nonbelief themselves.
