Argument for atheism from necessary evil

"therefore the traditional monotheistic God doesn't exist", we might be getting somewhere.

Not convinced this is true, nor that it adds anything to the argument. Some interpretations of all monotheisms leave us with a god who conditionally loves humankind, and infact is a stern father figure than an uber-kind parent. Therefore adding your suggestion might get us precisely nowhere or even confuse the position. The philosphical god of theism is the one which is claimed to be all loving, which in all argumentation is simply referred to as god.
