Problem of good and evil for an atheist

[Rev. Rye]

Killing Hitler would not have prevented the Second World War which was pretty much inevitable as a brought on by the growing economic and nationalistic factors of the time. In all likelihood another perhaps more successful leader would have risen to replace him (someone who would have made less mistakes and possibly won the second world war), his ideas where shared by many at the time.

And, from what I've read, it seems that Hitler himself was not directly responsible for the details of many of the atrocities his nation committed. According to Ian Kershaw, it seems that Hitler's main methods were to give vague instructions to his followers and have them hammer out the details, and he'd reward the one he'd like the most. For instance, he'd probably have said something like, "Heydrich and Himmler, try and figure out a way to take care of the Jews of Europe once and for all," and they'd come up with plans for concentration camps with built-in gas chambers and a crematorium that can handle up to 4000 bodies daily.

Oh, and while we're on the subject of Baby-killing and the Bible, here's Hosea 13:16 (Amplified Version)
Samaria shall bear her guilt and become desolate, for she rebelled against her God; they shall fall by the sword, their infants shall be dashed in pieces, and their pregnant women shall be ripped up.

Or Better yet, Psalm 137 (also Amplified):
1BY THE rivers of Babylon, there we [captives] sat down, yes, we wept when we [earnestly] remembered Zion [the city of our God imprinted on our hearts].
2On the willow trees in the midst of [Babylon] we hung our harps.
3For there they who led us captive required of us a song with words, and our tormentors and they who wasted us required of us mirth, saying, Sing us one of the songs of Zion.
4How shall we sing the Lord's song in a strange land?
5If I forget you, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget its skill [with the harp].
6Let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth if I remember you not, if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy!(A)
7Remember, O Lord, against the Edomites, that they said in the day of Jerusalem's fall, Down, down to the ground with her!
8O Daughter of Babylon [you devastator, you!], who [ought to be and] shall be destroyed, happy and blessed shall he be who requites you as you have served us.(B)
9Happy and blessed shall he be who takes and dashes your little ones against the rock!
