Well, the end of days for starters. For quite a few literlalists it's like their own personal porn, longing for it to happen, wanting to make it happen. Let's just say I wouldn't entrust any of them with access to nuclear arms. A few of them, not politicians I hope, come on here on occasion to let us participate in their wet dreams.
But that's just the most obvious and dangerous. The discrimination and outright hate against certain groups of people is to wide a field to put it just into a few words.
Your end of days example shows you do not have a grasp of what it is you are talking about. You are making stuff up to prove your conclusion that Christians are a "clear and present danger". I thought this was a place of enlightenment where no assumptions are made and only the evidence prevails. Still waiting for evidence to back up your assertion.
Where did Jesus or Paul teach to discriminate or hate?
