Murder is a sin in all, but what about the hundreds of soliders in our army who kill or are killed. They kill for their country, but are they still commiting murder. How is it different from what Cain did? Do they feel any guilt in killing other's who have families?

Wars are apart of life from the beginning of time. You have good question. It is hard to understand wars. Wars are of governments so they ordered by our governments. Just like law enforcement kill people in the line of duty. In the bible it say follow and obey government laws and rules for governments laws are God laws. So if we follow that then if government orders us to kill we must follow our governments orders and laws for they God's laws . There for it not sin. As for our soldiers feeling guilty of killing others.. yes they do. Some become mentally ill from it . Some get what is called post traumatic stress disorder from the wars they fight in. . Those that have jobs for our governments that require the need to kill must belief in this and in there government and that our governments are doing God's will. Those that don't fight with there consciences there whole life.
That is only your opinion, that does not actually make it so because you believe it.
Apparently you glossed over some numbers in the old testament.
