Indeed.
The problem with this is that God should be able to accomplish any goals any way he wants, so that if the method involves killing, he chose to use that as a method. Otherwise, he's a lot less than all powerful. A lesser deity would be an awful lot easier to defend, for this reason.
Just putting all your trust in anything, without ever questioning or thinking for yourself, is dangerous. That goes for real and imaginary things.
Similarly, saying "God can do whatever he likes and it's fine by me" is surrendering your humanity.
These are general comments, I'm not aiming them at anyone.
