Did God fearing civilian Christians in Nagasaki deserve to die? Did small children deserve to die?

Why don't you ask God to explain Soddom and Gomorrah. I'm sure there were innocents there. You're argument is basically that "war is bad". Fine. But what's the difference between death by 5.56 mm or 20 megatons? You're still dead. Either all war and all killing is immoral, or there are times when war and killing are justified. Why don't you just come out and say what you really feel and not hide behind your "morality"

War is bad, but often necessary -- sometimes its the only choice.

Well, you can duck while being shot at.. But you can't really duck an Abomb...
