When God saved the Israelites by killing the first-born son of the Egyptian households, was that "evil"?

So if all countries are evil, how are we supposed to single anyone out for praise and/or criticism?

Where does your former Secretary of State calling half a million dead Iraqi children "worth it" rank?

A lot of the people (politicians) responsible for that "very high evil" committed in your name are still alive. What are you doing to help bring them to justice?

So you admit that Ukraine is being supported by an evil state, with all that implies. Ok thanks, that'll be all.

Why do you consider the genocide of the Jewish people to be the lesser evil, then?

Anonymous A (OP) replied with this 2 years ago, 4 minutes later, 5 hours after the original post[^] [v] #1,260,458

@previous (D)
I consider genocide (which happened to the Egyptian babies) to be evil. Period.

No, they are probably about equally evil.

Which one do you suppose needed to be done more?

Neither. I see no “need” for genocide.

Anonymous D replied with this 2 years ago, 3 minutes later, 21 hours after the original post[^] [v] #1,260,558

@previous (A)

The situation was that the enslavement of the Jews was already ongoing. Therefore, there is no option to do nothing, because doing nothing is choosing the genocide of the Jews.

In other words, there is no space to sit on the fence. It was the Jews or the Egyptians; who deserved to die more?

Slavery is horrible, but I am not a "ends justify the means" person. Genocide is always evil.

False dichotomy. I side with neither.

Red herring, the question was "Which one do you suppose needed to be done more?". Since failing to stop the Egyptian genocide by killing the firstborn infants of every Egyptian family would result in the genocide of the Israelite people, there is no option other than to choose one or the other.

That is a false dichotomy. You are presenting two choices as if they are the only choices.

Anonymous D replied with this 2 years ago, 1 minute later, 1 day after the original post[^] [v] #1,260,596

What is the third choice?

Anonymous A (OP) replied with this 2 years ago, 21 minutes later, 1 day after the original post[^] [v] #1,260,597

@previous (D)
The third choice is letting the slaves go, or having a God who does not murder babies and commit genocide.

Not a choice.

@1,260,597 (A)

Only the Egyptians could let the Israelites go, and they had refused to do so. So "letting them go" is not an option. Also, there is only one God so having another god is also not an option.

There were plenty of other gods to choose from at the time. It wasn't until after the exodus from Egypt that the Jews started murdering anyone who didn't worship Yahweh
