I'm not presupposing that God = man
But I am presupposing that a moral system from a god would mean man striving to be like God as a way of achieving equal morality. A tyrant like Stalin or Hitler would therefore be quite godlike (Abrahamic God at least, probably Greek and Roman gods too)

Because the flood was an act of immense evil and if religion views it as moral, then religion (and god) pursue a standard for good and evil that make it impossible to distinguish between the two.
Ergo, God is more evil than any persons living or dead combined (I'll include the supposed existence of Satan too)
Your conclusion begins with the presupposition that God = Man
It also supposes that physical murder is the absolute worst thing that you could do to a person in the spiritual realm (since you decided to throw in Satan).
Can you please show to me how God, an omnipotent and supreme creator of all things, is equal to man? And remember: we are already under the assumption that God does in fact exist.
