Christians,
Someone can dislike the character of the God you worship without "being angry at him" like he actually exists. Think of it this way: I read the Harry Potter books, and I HATE Professor Umbridge. She's a horrible and nasty person. But does this mean that I think she's real? No, of course not; she's a fictional character. But I can still hate her.
The same goes with the Christian God. I do not like him. I think he's a dick, the way your book portrays him. Me saying this does not mean what you seem to think it does. There's a fine line between simply proclaiming that I dislike a character and then stating something like this: "God! I hate you so much! I am rebelling against thee! You have made my life horrible and thus I deny you!"
They're not the same. Know the difference.
