Evil God Challenge - Wikipedia

Can you disprove the existence such a "being"?

No I can not disprove that an evil god does not exist, why would I try. I fail to see what this has to do with your proof, why can't we talk about the god in your premise 1?

I do not believe in such a being.  What is there to talk about?  But, if such a being existed (and, it doesn't), then I would expect that such a being would, like me, have moral obligations, if such a being was moral.
