'Before I address your erroneous claims. I would like to point out that for a group of people who constantly talk about needing to study something in the original language it was written in you sure have gone to great lengths not to do so with the Bible.
H2026 harag hä·rag' slay, kill, kill..., murderer, destroyed, murder, out of hand, made, put, slain, slayer, surely

H7523 ratsach rä·tsakh' slayer, murderer, kill, murder, slain, manslayer, killing, slayer, slayeth, death
H7819 shachat shä·khat' kill, slay, offer, shot out, slaughter
These are all the various words used for the ending of a living things existence in the OT. The word used in the Ten Commandments is ratsach. It means specifically to murder. murder-Law. the killing of another human being under conditions specifically covered in law
You also seem to not understand the nature of the Bible. Surprise Surprise. The book of Chronicles is a record of HISTORY. That means it was recorded faithfully wether or not the action with God's approval.
To the verses from Deuteronomy 28:53 concerning the consumption of flesh. God isn't commanding them to do that. He is telling them what will happen. He knew beforehand what was going to happen to them, from another nation, and told them as a warning.
And like I have told you before all of these actions were not left open ended. God never said continue to do this for all eternity. What do you not understand about that. These things that happened are meant to be kept within the context of history.
The verse from Proverbs doesn't even mention death. It says his lamp will be put out into obsure darkness. In other words he will be stupid, ignorant, unwise. The very people that flock to a religion that twists history to defend their nature.
The verses from Lev. are OT law. They were put in place to govern the children of Israel. Not the world. That is why they are a holy people. They were set apart by God and given these laws. What you don't seem to understand is that Jews don't kill their children for minor infractions. This law would be instituted in the most severe cases. Besides in case no one told you we reside under the New Covenant. Funny thing is the Orthodox Jew we have today still considers himself under the OT Law. Yet we hear no stories of Jews killing their children for a smart mouth. Wonder why?
For the Exodus verses same answer as above. Also I would like to add that the smiting that is used in the verse refering to "hitting" the father is nakah or KILL. You don't believe a person should be held responsible for killing his parents? What astounds me is you have a problem with the OT. These are the Laws that muslims so often level as indictments against Christians for not keeping. Odd. I also noticed you didn't quote from the NT. Have a hard time finding fodder there?
For your verse from Deut 17:12 again this is OT law. And maybe you didn't notice that part about evil in the verse. God made all these precautions to keep idolotry out of Israel. This was to keep the Israelites a holy people in order that the Messiah would come and save us all.
Now that all your erroneous claims have been refuted I would like to add something on a personal note.
Quote Qur'an (2:191-193) - "And slay them wherever ye find them, and drive them out of the places whence they drove you out, for persecution [of Muslims] is worse than slaughter [of non-believers]... Look closer when they drove you out in verses .
bible is full of it too :
Only a child uses this logic. Only someone with an immature mind thinks he can expiate himself by pointing his finger at someone else and say "Well they did it too?"
