So you have a complete and total understanding of god? Mind sharing with us?

murder is defined by intent. while murdering is killing, not all killing is murdering.

How are we truly to know someone(or things) intent if we can not even hear from them? Also, this is still a matter of perception, what you think of as righteous and constitutes justice might not be the same to everyone else.

I agree, in general, but if the standard authority is being used - the Bible (see the first posts and their apparent reference to the Bible), then there may be minor disagreements, there isn't really any major perception differences.

GO CLEMSON and WAKE!!!

check it out
Every time God destroyed HIS creation, it was for a rightous reason(s)
God himself wouldnt have killed more than 10-30 thousand: the burning of sodom and Gamorah and the egyptians were the major factors
plus satan/demons have done alot more killing than 10 deathes. those numbers arent even close sorry

Those are the numbers from the bible. That's it. There's no interpretation, no theological magic, and this isn't a scheme in The War on Christianity(tm).

there is no exact number known to man. does someone know the exact number of people in sodom when god destroyed it? no. you cant even argue that

I think, though they didn't actually provide a list, was that these numbers are what is provided in the Bible. I have seen the comparison before and some of the numbers are reversed and out of context, but that would depend on a theological interpretation, and not a strict view of the text, not counting any contextual remarks, translations or other information.

You're just bad as the Christians that you're trying to offend.
