And one of them is simply "you shall not murder", but... but... what did god do with all the plagues he sent down on Egypt, particularly the one with all the firstborns, if not murdering?
What sort of moral authority does such a being have to tell his "children" not to murder when that's exactly what he did a couple of pages back?!
i understand what you are saying you should research the reason, but you could look at it this way. the first born in eygpt witnessed gods 9 plagues that should of made them repent and turn to god of moses. but they didnt and god doing that. they would of deserved it. they could of got saved if they died believing in god. but you should research and email me <SNIP>

I don't feel like adding anything over what Jenny said, except... do send a link or two where I can research all that.
