Then it's not an analogy to god/humanity, as humans do indeed kill each other.

Somewhat true, however the vast majority of us will never kill anyone. However they figured out on their own murder was bad so I set a rule in saying to kill all the robots that killed. I then ordered some that worshipped me to enslave and kill and the ones that didn't.
PS sorry bout the bad English in the first response. I was typing really fast on mobile and I have a tendency to mass words.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

That's okay. We're used to reading messed up shit around here.

Cue the Christians...3...2...1...
"Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who said it, no matter if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense.”
- Buddha
"Anyone wanting to believe Jesus lived and walked as a real live human being must do so despite the evidence, not because of it."

You're alive, free, and not worshipping, so your analogy is off again.

Yes because god isn't real. However in the bible he orders the mass slaughter of nonbelievers quite a few times and openly encourages the Jews to think of gentiles as nothing more then clever animals.

Christians are real, and yet you're alive, free, and not worshipping.

That's because Christians don't follow everything in their bible and just pretend those bad parts don't exist. If they did follow their bible they'd be protesting Red Lobster and other seafood restaurants that serve shellfish.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.

No, as the law was given to Israel, but most Christians are Gentiles.

And where does the bible say that you shouldn't follow the law of the old testament?
indeed it appears to say the opposite
It is easier for Heaven and Earth to pass away than for the smallest part of the letter of the law to become invalid." (Luke 16:17 NAB)
"Do not think that I have come to abolish the law or the prophets. I have come not to abolish but to fulfill. Amen, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest part or the smallest part of a letter will pass from the law, until all things have taken place." (Matthew 5:17 NAB)
"All scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching, for refutation, for correction, and for training in righteousness..." (2 Timothy 3:16 NAB)

Plenty of places, but the fullest discussion is probably Acts 15:1-29.
