First I note that you skip points 1 & 2.

If you decide to just kill them all (animals included) and sort the bodies out, you are not being just. If you punish the rules of Egypt by targeting, specifically, innocent firstborn children, you are a callous murderer. It says a lot about Christians that they think genocide of innocent children is 'just judgement'.These objections were addressed in points 4 & 5.
Quote: The Ten Commandments prioritizes slavish devotion to God over refraining from theft and murder. Those are not 'higher standards' from a just and righteous God. Those are 'fucked-up priorities' of a selfish and insecure God.This complaint is a red herring. The prohibition of coveting places thoughts on par with deeds, as does the sermon on the mount. By his standards, we’re all murderers, thieves, etc. many times over.
Quote: It also says a lot about Christians that they will always bend over backwards to justify the mass murder of children, all the while ignorant to how shallow it makes their 'pro-life' positions look to everyone else.This complaint is addressed in point 2, which you failed to address.
