Nowhere. God has a purpose for everything he does.

Where does it show Satan killing? At all? I don't recall reading that Satan killed anyone - yet everyone says he's out to Kill, Steal and Destroy. Yet, I haven't read where he has done any of that.
Jack has the right idea. 1st born of all of Egypt... I guess if you view kids as being evil because of the parents, then I guess he had a cause. But, oddly enough, the Bible also states that the child can not be held responsible for the fathers actions. Hhhhmmmm... gonna be hard to rationalize this one.

The book of Exodus. God killed the ALL the firstborn of Egypt. Presumably some of them were innocent children and babies. Ditto Noah's flood in Genesis.
Bible apologists will tell you that God did have cause but it certainly don't wash with the Judeo-Christian sense of justice to slaughter babies for the actions of the big kids.
Furthermore, Exodus tells us that Pharaoh defied God's command because God hardened Pharaoh's heart. This implies that Pharaoh had no free will in his action. But God sent plagues and death anyhow.

Perhaps with cause but not with good cause. Check out -
2 Kings 2:23 for a real horror story.

Considering God is supposedly omnipotent, he could find any number of other solutions to his problems (otherwise, he's not omnipotent). So he never had a cause to kill.
And by that same analogy... I want to eat your heart. Maybe fry up your liver if it's not too wrecked. I have a cause to kill you now. Does that make it right?

Noah's ark - Unless EVERYONE was bad
Egypt - All of the Egyptians first borns must have done soemthing wrong, especially the 1 year olds
The incense guys - My personal favourite, two guys die for burning incense at the wrong time.....but I guess that was just cause

well....all those children in egypt that were murdered when god had prove a point to pharaoh...that springs to mind.
Oh, and how about all the children around the world who god drowned in the flood?
I'm sure there are many more examples, but these are grim enough.

What makes me curious is why people today feel that they have to do the killing for "Him".
If god wanted somebody dead, I imagine he could handle it himself.
