We have one poster objecting to God killing of infants, or at least the violent but quick means, and another justifying it, and your reasoning is tenable, but the issue of proven authority is key.
In addition, what is the difference between your attitude and that of Martin Niemöller’s as regards the Jews being gassed? Method? Volitional aspect?
I find your rational disturbing.

Have you got the right poster? I regard all human oppression or use of force against other humans beings, especially those resulting in death, evil. As far as I know there is nothing in any post on this thread about “God killing infants,” only about men killing infants. That is plainly evil.
Perhaps you can understand my “rational” in these terms. Two wrongs do not make a right. Should a woman abort her unborn. Of course not. Is the remedy to do something oppressive, by force, to the woman? If you think it is, your view is just as evil as the view of the woman who sees nothing wrong with aborting her unborn.
