That behavior indicates ignorance in the nature of what he himself created; and ignorance is enough to erase the justification of righteousness in the crusade he waged against his creations.

Actually; that's a pretty unstable tyrant, that creates things he isn't sure about their behavior; or future moves. Getting angry if they went against his expectations. That looks more of a pile of emotional confusion that needs education and anger management.

Personally, I think you had it right the first time...and anthropomorphism is your problem, not mine.  I consider the entire category of the divine to be anthropomorphism in the first place.

You don't have to be religious to find out one way or another that human (and pretty much all biological lifeforms) have weak traits that make them lesser to each other in comparison. I think it's pretty wrong to picture anything accurately if human beings were the only model we compare to.

A God will have a very different model.

Even if you were an atheist; and you commit anthropomorphism in your analysis of the world: your logic has an error.
