I’ll make it even simpler for you: I already said that if he believes what the Bible says about the genocide happening, he also believes that G-d created life and has the right to take it away again.

I find this logic particularly disturbing.

If I were to create a sentient computer program and then delete it as it was begging for its life that would be ok? I created it after all.

If someone asked me to kill their children that would be okay? Because they created them?

If a god(s) existed beyond a doubt and they created the world I would still not be okay with them destroying it. We have a beautiful planet that is filled with incredible wonders. More than just humans with all of our charm and flaws. We have countless organisms and incredible non-organic wonders in this universe that would cease to exist. Even if those things went on to have some sort of “meta” existence, I would consider anything that destroys the original version, quite frankly, evil.
