That's not entirely correct, cawoodm. Professor Longman says the Bible claims God will not let evil (physical or spiritual) flourish and grow forever. The Bible speaks of a *final* "day of judgment". The Bible also claims God promises amnesty from judgment for every evil person who wants to stop being evil. If you stop yourself, no violence is required to stop you. The Bible describes repentance as God's "Plan A". Judgment is "Plan B". Either way evil ends. That's God's plan, what's yours?
So you apply the "sin" and "judge sin" excuse to justify genocide;Oh! they disobeyed God.
Hitler too had an excuse for killing the Jews, Stalin & Mao too had the same excuses:
"They are enemies of the state, they conspired against us, they deserved it..."
or "They are traitors, they are not part of the effort, they disobeyed us..."
I'd rather have it declared as "MIGHT IS RIGHT" pure and simple; without this crap and brainwashing.
To ALL Apologists out there:YOU'RE FIRED! GO get a real job.

Alastair, you are still admitting that God deals with Evil by means of violence. Evil repented is no longer Evil.

So God's way of dealing with Evil is, whether physical or spiritual, violence.
