When I see comments apparently expressing a dismissive attitude to life, combined with wilfully blind devotion to a religion that has been described by some as a death cult, I feel obliged to point it out. Of course I have no idea of your character in the real world (by that I mean the world beyond this forum; not the one in your head); you may be a decent bloke with whom I could happily share a pint of Banks's and a bag of scratchings. However, the character of the person you present here scares me.
I don't have a dismissive attitude towards life. I love life, and I love people. I don't even hurt bugs I find in my house, I put them outside. Yes, I said plants and bacteria are extaneous to the question of Gods judgement upon the Earth. If that frightens you then I can only imagine that you still use a nightlight in your room. What I am presenting is that I think God is a just judge, and that if He judges someone, it is because they are guilty. You obviously don't believe that, but I do, and we can chop that up to difference of opinion. I don't approve of violence, or killing, but I understand that God brings judgement upon this world, and that is His sovereign right. Further, that He would not be just if He didn't bring judgement.
