Isn't that a bit disingenuous of you?
You say...don't think about it or question the cost/benefits, don't ask if it really IS God commanding you to execute a convicted murderer, ignore the ends justifying the means, ignore the fact that mandatory killing takes place all the time...
AND THEN you will attack blind, unthinking obedience to God.
It's sad, really. You're as close to the verge of an honest intellectual breakthrough as such a small mind can manage, but you'll never reach out and grab it.
