The gods are gods, not archetypes or forces of nature. Humans cannot create gods, that is hubris.
The gods cannot hate anything if they are merely archetypes. Your formulation would simply make them middlemen for our understanding of the forces of nature.
Evil is not a void space, although that may be an instance of evil.

The Jews/Christians are almost completely wrong, and create a form of religion where God is subordinate to Evil, perhaps even one of its machinations.
My own position on Good and Evil is not that of linear poles, it is closer to the Platonic idea that they exist within a single territory and Evil is the total corruption of the Good. Hence why Evil can never be an instance, a pure substance, but instead must rely upon the formation of the good, using its structures for its own ends. This depends on the realisation of its being, not a materialist concept of totality or completion. We have been enduring ultimate evil for some time, arguably perfected in 1950s America.
Gravity has nothing to do with good and evil, it is simply a minor force of nature, completely devoid of human intervention. Perhaps the moderns' worship of such arbitrary and lifeless qualities says something about Evil and its triumph, as if we are grounded to it out of necessity.
The Christian and the Nietzschean have apparently formal fatalistic attitudes towards good and evil, as if we could potentially hold dominion over them, or ground them within the abstraction of laws. But the abstraction of the law is not the law itself, this is a fundamental misunderstanding of the universe and simple life which has resulted in our runaway disconnect from nature and all that makes sense.

I appreciate your response, however, theology and myth cannot be approached from a point of naturalism. This is something of an evil contained within the form. Such questions are never clear, and if you jump to this conclusion you have missed the point. The administration of ideas denies their very possibility.

There is an interesting scene in Free Solo, I think, where he finally ascends the rock and he hears cheering, as if it is for him. But these people don't even notice him, or have any clue what he has just done, they are simply enjoying the crowds of nature.

Even Nietzche could never imagine the depths of our pain.
