Sounds like that is their idea of god. Care to elaborate on the difference between "a religious idea of god" and "the idea of god itself"? How would such a distinction be possible for theistic belief systems?
(I'd have to add here, that there probably is some pyschopath that did the whole "there is no god therefore I will kill people" routine. Wouldn't surprise me at all.)
