Easy arguments against the Bible, and religion as a whole
RE: Easy arguments against the Bible, and religion as a whole
Yes, killing in self-defense is the only time it is justifiable, I will concede that, but considering God is an omnipotent being under no threat, this is irrelevant. Regardless of whether it is okay for humans to kill as a form of punishment, which for the record I am against, an omnipotent being should have an infinite number of options to rectify a situation. Killing in self-defense is a last resort, which Yaweh should never have to use.

The only reason I can see that God would need to kill is for a show of force, and that is the kind of tactic that criminal organizations and warmongers use.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
