The "god is evil" thing is generally the OT god. My reference to the OT god is "evil tyrannical misanthrope". Even if there were a god, it is not that asshole in the bible. If there were any truth to the bible, it would be the stories of tyrannical overlords presenting themselves as gods and nothing more.
But I thought you thought there was no such thing as evil?
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
