Of course not because the Bible never promotes such things.
It not only promotes it, it DEMANDS it, as others have pointed out. Women be quiet in church, killing whole civilizations because the land was promised to the Israelites, homosexuals are to be stoned to death.
As was pointed out, this is the Christianity forum, discussion about Christianity, not only for Christians. You're welcome to post in the Atheism and Agnosticism forum, if you dare.

All you are doing is taking verses out of context. Tell me, do you think a group like ISIS should be killed? The civilizations that God commanded to be wiped out were even worse than these thugs. Why is wiping out evil people so wrong to you?
Here's a verse that teaches respect and equality for women:
"In the same way, you husbands must give honor to your wives. Treat your wife with understanding as you live together. She may be weaker than you are, but she is your equal partner in God's gift of new life. Treat her as you should so your prayers will not be hindered. (NLT)" 1 Peter 3:7

I seriously doubt Christians are welcome there. Anything we post would be labeled as preaching.

Don't tell my wife this; she would feel disrespected. I do agree that this passage is a bit contradictory to the I Corinthians 14:34-35 passage. 34 women are to be silent in the churches. They are not permitted to speak, but must be in submission, as the Law says. 35 If they wish to inquire about something, they are to ask their own husbands at home; for it is dishonorable for a woman to speak in the church
How would your wife be honored by keeping her silent in church?
Wiping out the people who do evil acts is typically justified, so long as the acts reach such a level, but killing the innocent children and animals would not be. The ISIS fighters would be justified targets, but their babies and children are not.
No different rules, only rules against proselytizing. You're welcome to answer/ask questions, refute claims and give your evidence for your claims, but no preaching is allowed.

There you go. The bible is all over the place. As would be expected being written by numerous humans and not one just God.
