Nope, I read the whole Quran and confidently say that we are not ordered to kill any infidels unless they start killing the innocent (either muslim or non muslim), spread corruption, evil and oppression. I would still like you to quote the verses you are talking about other then the verses that deals with warfare. I have already posted a detail explanation the concept of Islamic warfare.
God however warns the infidels again and again that He will seperate good from bad. God says that He is indeed present and is looking over you. Think honestly that a person of rejects this whole system (accountability in after life and heaven and hell based on that etc.) of God, His teachings and Prophets and all this do turns out to be true (just suppose for understanding), does such a person deserves the fruits of this system? You don't even get a software if you don't accept the terms and agreements.
On the other hand, if you believe in God and the day of accountability (judgement). You do good, spread good and refrain from major evils and be patient then God will respect your efforts and will make you successful in afterlife.
For me core of Islam is this one statement:
Faithful and Unfaithful, Good and evil can NEVER EVER be EQUAL.
Since they are not equal, they will not end up as equal.

There are literally hundreds of otehrs, but i'm lazy and cannot be arsed looking for any more.Like I said Quran is essentially the same message taught by Moses and Jesus (Peace be upon them). You can search the net and literally you will also find thousands of well detailed explanations on it. So it comes down to your own conscious choice which explanation you accept. The word of Quran never claimed to be new. It mostly cleansed the already established concepts that got corrupted over the time.

It is ok bro
First don't just take sex into picture. Sex without marriage is fornication in Islam and a great sin and evil deed. To establish a relation including sexual relation with a girl, you first have to marry her. The marriage is done not to just fulfill your lust and then divorce the girl. Marriage takes place ultimately with the consent of the girl and boy both with a sincere intention to form a household in which husband has the responsibility to provide food, shelter and clothes to wife. Wife can do that too but she is not obligated to do it.The minimum age of boy and girl is when they reach their puberty. For boy it is his first ejaculation and for girl is her first menstruation which is usually when the girl's age is 9 to 13. Before her puberty, any sexual relation is illegal in Islam.
I know age of 9 does not sound preferable to have sexual relation with a girl but preferable and illegal is two different concepts. Still if the family and girl is willing then it is fine. Minimum age of marriage for girl is different in different countries ranging from 14 to 20 years. Every country has its own basis to define "under age". For Islam the base is puberty when male and female can reproduce. Before that is prohibited.
I suddenly got some busy days ahead so I might not be able to give detailed explanations. Thank You
