This is nothing more than a fallacious tu quoque argument. Whether or not we are also guilty of immorality does not prevent us from being capable of judging immorality in another. That simply doesn't follow logically. Moreover, condoning something as a finite, limited individual does not compare to the deliberate acts of an omnipotent god. They are dissimilar standards.
Indeed they are completely different standards. An omnipotent being would understand the butterfly effect in wiping out a whole community of people. whether that had a positive or negative impact on Humanity at large, while a selfish self righteous people who practice infanticide as a form of post coital birth control has absolutely no idea who it is they are killing.
Is it so far fetched that an all knowing God could wipe out the father of a movement that would have seen all of humanity obliterated from the earth? Really?? that while He is calling the deaths of hundreds if not thousands, He in turn is not protecting the Race itself from extinction? If God wanted Humanity to last longer than what this self destructive people wanted, then wouldn't He then obligate Himself to destroy these 'bad seeds?"
Verse
"Moral" people killing billions of unborn babies because the parent(s) don't want that child. Who these children would grow up to be is not apart of the equation. The only question being is the baby wanted?
So, yes you can judge... I have already conceded you can judge, however you do so from a position of hypocrisy. If you want to judge God evil for killing thousands, He will inturn use your own 'standard' (As Christ did with the pharisees) and hold the world accountable by their own standard. May their be mercy if you are a hypocrite.
Again this is a "take the plank out of your eye, before you concern yourself with the speck in the eye of God."
