I think my favorite so far was the justification of God's commandment to bash babies' heads against stones because those babies were Babylonian and all Babylonians end up sinful and get cast into hell. Therefore it is a mercy to bash a Babylonian baby's head against a rock before it become a determined sinner. Theocracy anyone? (shudder)

It doesn't work on adults. Kill a sinner and he goes to hell. In fact it's the worst thing you could do.
