The lesson could well be, that the flood was required, because Cain lived.How does this fit in with the commandment we are to care for others as we would have them care for us in times of need. We all start off on equal footing and all have the same ability to murder within us. Did God execute Cain?
If your one example against the death penalty, is that God let Cain live, why don't you use the example whereby God destroyed all of mankind, except for one family?
Or, in other words, letting murderers live condemns mankind.
