Should we kill them all, or should we save them

Should we kill them all, or should we save them

Isaiah 45:7 (KLV): "I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things."

Maybe God created George Tiller? Maybe he even created Scott Roeder? Am I to judge or should I look the other way? I think there is a scripture that commands that we "be not deceived." Does anyone who is deceived know it? Probably not, or they are no longer deceived.

Should I blindly accept what the preachers, teachers, judges and their propaganda machines tell us? There are many verses in the Bible that mention God sending a spirit of evil.

Here are only a few of the possibilities -- 1 Samuel 16:15, 16:16, 16:23, 18:10; 1 Kings 9:9; Jeremiah 19:15, 40:2.

Does the Holy Bible or the government allow me to judge if it is "too bad" about Tiller? Am I allowed to decide (judge) if killing 60,000 babies in Wichita is bad ... and millions nationwide? Let me see, am I commanded to not have fellowship with unbelievers? Unbelievers in what? So many questions. Back to the book for another look. Oh, wait. If government is the god, then we better make that plural, books, lots of books, millions of pages.

PS: Who decides if it is good or evil to kill ... Iraqi people, Iranians, Russians, Germans, Vietnamese, Japanese, Rwandans, etc.? If someone designates the people living in such-and-such country as "our" evil enemies or terrorists, then we are allowed to kill 'em all and let God sort it out, right? What's a few million people, so long as their death is sanctioned by a government by declaring "war" or "police action" or now even no declaration. First, let's kill all the killers. Oh ... wait. Oooops.
