I haven't questioned the authority of the Bible for Christians. I questioned the use of fear to establish the truth of a proposition. If I say proposition p is the case and if you don't believe it a zombie will strike you dead, that does not make proposition p the case. The Bible can be used as a threat to do the same thing. The Bible isn't the problem, the fallacious argument is.
