...and its this kind of reasoning that leads many non-believers to call Christianity amoral (and even immoral). You merely are creating (again) another ad hoc defense of a Biblical story that contains nothing to support that defense. Biblical genocide is okay to Christianity because they ASSUME God only kills those worthy of death. That, is objectively an immoral position to hold, and makes the ancient Hebrews (and their god) the moral equivalent of Hitler, Stalin, or Pol Pot (all of which used the exact same reasoning to defend their immoral acts).
