This is called the "Beat-you-to-the-punch - I'll play the martyr" Defense
The disgusting attributes of your god are only considered to be out of context if christians as a whole deny that when god said "Kill", he did indeed mean, "kill."
Christians as a whole, do not, and you are full of shit if you pretend otherwise. In fact, many christians are rather boastful about the brutal nature of their god as it allows them to justify their own violent agendas.
Furthermore, you pretentious bastard, we don't condemn your god in order to justify ourselves. We need no justification. We condemn your make-believe god on the sole grounds that he is a supreme asshole!
