Christians: Thou shalt not kill

Also Christians: Let's mass murder a bunch of kids

I think the meaning is to not murder, so not "wrongfully" kill. There were quite instances even in the bible where the Israelites did kill "rightfully", starting with wars.

So, as long as you just make it legal, it's alright to genocide people.

Then he went up from there to Bethel; and as he was going up by the way, young lads came out from the city and mocked him and said to him,“Go up, you baldhead; go up, you baldhead!”

When he looked behind him and saw them, he cursed them in the name of the LORD. Then two female bears came out of the woods and tore up forty-two lads of their number.

God: I fucking love killing children.
