Is there a specific religious term for the belief "God exists and he is evil"? (lemm.ee)

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.

I get what youre saying but unless you believe in a whole deific pantheon that spans the moral spectrum, you just cant logically label a single god-like entity as evil, as it would have no meaning without contrast.

How is this different than labeling god good?

The ideology is that if you don't know the difference between right and wrong nothing you do can be wrong.
