Aww, Hell no!
You gotta be kidding me.
I use a sharp (as in you can slice meat and vegetables with it) spatula both 
on my stove griddle-top, and on all kinds of cast Iron Frypans and the like 
that I have, and they work _Just_Fine_.  If it's properly seasoned, (the 
frypan) scratches and dings don't matter.  It would take a hammer and cold 
chisel to damage the cooking surface on _Real_ cookware...
