In Fyodor Dostoevsky's seminal novel, "The Brothers Karamazov", one of the most memorable scenes is when the titular brothers (one, a monk, the other, an atheist) engage in an unconventional debate about the existence of god.
The older of the two brothers posits that the multiple evils of this world, that even children are subjected to, indicates that god must be a malevolent entity, and that promises of paradise after death are simply taunts.
"It's not that I don't accept god, I just most respectfully decline him the ticket," Ivan Karamazov declares.
Ivan rejects all notions of god's benevolence, but even further than that, he does not consider the debate about whether god exists to be important, rather, the question of whether or not we want to exist in this world.
In summary, for us, the victims of an uncaring creator, life is nothing more than A Cruel Angel's Thesis (1995)

If God is conceivably malevolent, that should give you more impetus to worship Him, not less.

In my imagination I hear Ivan saying this in a very monotone drawl as he is cryptically fatalistic. He says it but he he does not say it. He could not care or care not. It is all steps choregraphed and whether he smiles at it or frowns was written in the books long before

It's a bit uncanny how similar Asuka is to me. She's almost the same age as me. She has the nearly exact same ethnic makeup as me. We have similar trauma issues. It's like Anno looked into the future, saw me, and decided he would turn me into a hot anime babe.

For a long period he made his entire personality based around his own self-pity. You remind he of him because the way he spoke was very similar to your post.
He started dating my ex about a week after a period where I had been confiding in him the heartbreak I was going through, which was about a month after we had broken up.
Frankly I blame myself, if I wasn't such a sperg in highschool i should've seen it coming a mile away. I actually didn't realize that any of this was wrong until much later, as I had never felt a single pang of jealousy because as I mentioned due to his self-pity and general low self-esteem, the relationship did not last more than a few months and from the outside just looked like she was pitying him, as he had had a strong crush on her for years well before i knew either of them. He ended up confiding in me his love woes the same way I had him, and I told him to end it as genuine advice to a friend as the whole situation looked emasculating.
Frankly I'm glad it ended that eskimo bro bullshit was bothersome

i think the most amazing thing is the answer to that question about God, in both the Grand Inquisitor poem and in the interaction between the two brothers; it's a kiss.

before anyone even thinks of it
>for Russians, as for many Eastern Europeans, kissing on the lips (same sex) is more significant than shaking hands. It indicates deep friendship and love.

Sometimes that turns out to be very intriguing because the creator makes something meaningful accidentally. He says he did it for no reason, but we can't say for sure there wasn't a subconscious intention at work. Reason would dictate there was.

If God is evil it would indicate he is less than all powerful in at least some way, because evil actions tend to come from a deficit(incomplete knowledge, greed, fear) so you would probably be vest to find some other entity to throw your lot in with.
