Or would you say that we are given constant proof of God's malevolence because people die every day?
Clearly you still don't understand. This would be some other argument, go have it with someone interested in having it. I'm not going to play the chessboard to your catholic pigeon, thanks. Your defense of the narrative and the claims you would like to make about the "god" character is entirely comprised of an appeal to hypocrisy, it does not matter whether or not the killing of a child is wrong. Whether it is or isn't doesn't change the fallacious nature of the argument. Whether god is benevolent, malevolent, or neither..doesn't change the fallacious nature of the argument. My opinions of your god do not determine, nor are they capable of changing the fallacious nature of your argument.
Is this sinking in yet?
Once it has, I'll have a chuckle at how you're forced to resort to wondering whether or not killing a child is wrong - for the sole reason of excusing your god for having done so. As was the case before, I don't know, you tell me, is killing a child wrong? I'll defer to your interpretation of this as I deferred to your interpretation of the narrative you failed to defend. The beauty of this approach, is that there's no room for wiggling at the other end when things don't turn out the way you hope.
