I am not an atheist, I genuinely believe that God exists and he is evil, like a toddler who fries little ants with a lens.
minus-square@Ultraviolet@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish9•edit-23 months agoSomewhat pedantically speaking, the belief that an evil god exists (exclusively or otherwise) is dystheism. Misotheism is the hatred of a god or gods. Dystheism implies misotheism, but they’re not exactly the same.
