What made it OK for God to kill women and children in the Old Testament

[unholy1971]

I just watched a You Tube clip titled "John Piper - What made it OK for God to kill women and children in the Old Testament?"

This is my second You Tube link to a pastor Joh Piper video, I appologize for this.  But the answers pastor Piper gives to the interviewer truly amaze me.  I find myself asking, is this really the best answer he can give?  Richard Dawkins would destroy this man in a debate.  You guys have to watch this.

I never cease to be amazed at the intellectual contortions which reasonably bright people will go through to justify this kind of stuff.
