Not at all because there is no eternal burning hell. I am a Christian, but I believe that all will someday accept Christ and praise and love Him for what He has done for us. I believe those who accept Him now are His elect(special purpose), but those who don't have a little harder path before they reach heaven. God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself. Christ died for ALL, and love never fails.

i have no idea what hell is, to be honest-there is scripture referring to a 'lake of fire'...whether that is literal or metaphorical, i don't know, and it doesn't really matter which, to be brutally honest, since that is not my destination...i'm of the 'personal opinion' that hell is probably the complete absence of God and all that He is-love, joy, beauty, truth, peace...i do find it rather interesting that you 'know' so much about a hell that i'm sure you don't believe in, and can just pluck percentages out of thin air, are such an expert on what is and isn't 'Crhistian'...and even 'know' who is going there-this is what Christ said: 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. no one comes to the Father except through Me', it's really no more complicated than that...as to whether God sends certain people to hell, i think that it's rather childish and illogical to blame Him if someone ends up, shall we say, 'not in heaven'...it's the same as if you are hiking along a cliff and your guide tells you to keep to the right, so you step to the left, fall off the cliff, and curse the guide all the way down-Christ offers a way to eternal life-He's not going to force anyone to accept it, but He certainly can't be blamed by those who refuse it...i know a lot of people who have passed on, and i look forward to reuniting with them on the other side of death...the more, the merrier, i say...

i just thought that if god is all loving and caring, then he/she/it wouldn't create hell to make people suffer forever..
that is serious crue and unusual punishment...

No. Everyone has to deal with the consequences of their actions.

hell is a condition not a place. you put yourself in a hellish condition. no one else puts you there. hell as a place is just a way to scare you children into listening to you to do chores and whatnot.

I'm an atheist and it bothers me that so many christians make my current life hell.

What bliss will fill the ransomed souls,
When they in glory dwell,
To see the sinner as he rolls,
In quenchless flames of hell.
