I assume all good atheists if presented with a god of unimaginable power and were asked to do something horrific, they would all refuse.

Told to kneel and the alternative is death. Maybe I would.
Told to commit atrocities and the alternative is death. I couldn't live with myself afterwards anyway, so why would I comply?
Seriously, don't presume to speak for me.
