Thank you for an honest answer Mitch.

My direct and very clear answer is the same as yours, no, I do not consider any of the God ordained killings in the bible to be wrong, any more than I believe it was wrong for God to have a bear kill the young men who mocked the prophet. We have become so comfortable with God's grace, that we have come to expect and even demand it. God's own self limiting character requires Him to be just, but grace is His prerogative, and His alone. If someone takes it upon himself to kill someone and they happen also to be innocent, then that would be murder it would be wrong.
