The problem is that you insist on equating my defense of the sovereignty of God with the idea that I coldly defend the killing of children.
​
That's because you defend god's right to kill children if he sees fit.
​
It's quite simple really. Nobody is saying you think it alright to kill children - you just make god a special case - you make him a lessor god, a god with lower moral values than your own.

It's amazing that you can't see how you are imposing a cheap moral opinion of your own on this issue.
​
I don't think you really mean that. I think you're just huffing and puffing.
​
You are saying that it's ok for god to kill children, yet he tells us 'Thou shalt not kill'. So what is this? Do as i say, not as I do?
​
The problem here is that god tells us what is right and wrong, but does what both he and you believe to be wrong - killing children. So god is evil. Or it's just a story from its time.

Re: Moderator Concern
7. And don't do it anyway because nobody, but nobody reads it. The only surer way of being ignored is to link to 3 blogs and 2 Youtube videos.
