in saying judgements upon the christian community will not christians be Damned to hell before all others and judged more severely and have LESS grace and mercy upon their heads if they truly do not repent? in other words, people who are good people will they not have more mercy over those christians who are proud and think themselves to be worthy when they are not?

Well, the word does say, we should judge ourselves.1 Corinthians 11:31
But if we judged ourselves, we would not come under judgment.
Firstly,we are saved by grace..not of works. So, if we truly do believe and do wrong we repent. That's what it means to be a Christian.
A person who does not repent of wrong doing is not a Christian..but an unbeliever! This person comes under judgment, but not the way you describe it. God is not wanting to with hold his mercy or grace, but to extend it to all.
Romans 5:8
But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
Luke 13:34
"O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing
The Lord is reaching out to those, who are not willing to come.
The condemnation comes from their own refusal.

GOD is the only one who can answer that. It's true that we are not to judge. That doesn't stop some people from doing so. GOD will judge every single one of us and we will all have to answer for what we did in our lives. True christians never deem themselves worthy to be in heaven due to the fact we are all sinners. Thank you and may GOD bless.

God says he will judge all, not just some ,but all mankind. Even righteous men,make mistakes, or probably sin ,at some point in their lives. they are not above judgment As God has said. God also said ,they will be judged accordingly to the deeds they done. Be It good or bad. they still must stand before God. No one will escape Gods judgment.

No one is good, all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God, mercy is for anyone who repents and accepts it, those that have accepted Christ are made worthy, those that have not, are not.

Why not do the best you can as you believe, and leave the judging to your god? If I believed in a supreme being, I certainly would not second guess it.

God will judge everyone equally. sometimes non-christians do more work than christians themselves

Yes, of course. We are His children and should always realize that others see Him by our lives. So we should make that count
