1:5, Col 3:17)."
Well, I guess every mass genocide that has ever occurred for the purpose of obedience and love to him was a "good" action. That clears it all up. Pretty screwed up god IMO.
Ok, at least now you are giving me something to work with…
Why did you completely ignore what the word obedience means? If someone committed genocide and was not told to do so by God Himself then of course this would not be good because it would be a complete disobedience to God’s commandments not to murder and to love one’s enemies.

I hope you enjoyed your shower!
Given your atheistic view of morality why would genocide always be wrong? Good luck with that one!
You also never answered my questions about how you even define what good is.
