    I mean, assuming the existence of a god, I don’t disagree. But if you are assuming the existence of a god then you’re not really atheist. This is the kind of misinterpretation that theists who can’t imagine not believeing in the supernatural often make about atheists; that we’re simply angry or confused rather than rejecting the paradigm altogether.

      For all intents and purposes, dystheism is the same as atheism. Especially if it’s agnostic dystheism, as I’m guessing it usually is.
