3 and counting

Another divinely ordained murder, this time a mother who bludgeoned two of her children to death in gruesome fashion.

I think it would be of interest, both sociologically and theologically, to keep a running tab of the number of murders that God has ordered. On the basis of just the stories that I've followed here, the total is 3. Keep your eyes and ears open friends, and send along word of any such cases. I think the only criteria should be that the murderer explicitly received his/her orders straight from God, meaning that those who kill in the interest of a political/theological agenda would not be counted here (I'm not sure I can count that high).
