If you are, then what is the difference if he judges them before they die? 

If you are not, then it seems that killing people is really not your objection--rather that somehow it is not reasonable that God should be able to judge us.

Perhaps their objection is that the idea of a good God killing people defies modern humane intuitions of what constitutes superior/divine morality. Whether God should or should not judge us is not what they're arguing about. So focus on the argument at hand instead of trying to guess for them what they're really objecting to.

In other words, nice dodge, lol.

Silly me...responding to the OP with questions. Almost like I wanted to have a discussion...

What it the moral difference between God taking a life of a person as judgement versus waiting for some point in the future and judging them?
