Is it wrong to pray for God to kill someone?
There is this one person who is a thorn on humanity's side. He's not a world leader or powerful person but rather an asshole with whom *someone* had the misfortune of attending high school. *Someone* will not waste your time with the semantics of what it is he's done but answer the question: is it wrong to ask God to waste someone or not.

God decides when we live and when we die. If the person hurt you, it's fine to pray for God's will to be done in that person's life.

Yes, it's wrong. Having a god being your revenge machine (even the after life where your enemies get smacked about for hearing their wrong doings) is not healthful.
By the way, it's not that you'd asking him to "kill" as you and other answerers here are seeing it. If you truly think life goes on, that's not why it's wrong. Why it's wrong is that you're looking for revenge on others in such a way like that.

You can pray for whatever you like. You should be aware however that you will receive in kind the energy that you give out. Once you commit to sending this kind of message , I would suggest you keep your eyes open.
In reality , there is no right or wrong. Opinions are not the truth.Pretty much everyone lives in fear of hell.
It is all so very silly. No one knows what is right or wrong.it is all a relative thing.

Yes it's wrong and it's written in the 10 commandments thou shall not kill why would you ask God something like that?! Open the Bible and read Kane and Able.
Murder is wrong period!
