When people refuse to stop doing evil, and when they do not accept God's sacrifice for their evil, He has to put an end to the evil. That means destroying the vessel carrying the evil. But He loves the vessels (people), and gives them chances to reform. As 2 Peter 3:9 says, "The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance." The majority of instances of genocide in the Old Testament occurred after a word of warning--Nineveh, Babylon, Sodom, Tyre, Israel ect. all received calls for repentance. God does not kill for personal reasons, He kills in the name of good and in protection of the people who do recognize the problems with sin (sin being the opposite of love).
Therefore, Christianity endorses slavery and genocide, as long as god is doing it. So much for the religion of love.
Keep those Christian responses coming! Every time one of you post, you go out of your way to show everyone what amoral monsters you guys are. At least, nobody can dispute the strength of your awful faith.
