God gave you a mind and a sense of what is just for a reason. When traditional interpretations and the good sense that God gave us collide...which should win out? I'm sorry, if something claiming to be God says it's just to do something terrible he's wrong and clearly not God. God is just, and we made in his image, hunger and thirst for that righteousness and justice. The only real competition against our built in sense of justice is tradition and the fear of religious authorities.
Here's a very interesting concept...God is just...and does what is just...always. He doesn't do injustice and then tell us it's just because He's God and we're not. That makes God sound like my alcoholic father who felt he could beat my mother and it was right because he was the, "man of the house".
