It seems like you wouldn't be open to a different view.

Depends what you mean by Theism and Deism then? As in the normal meaning you are making a flat-out contradiction.

I've had over fifty years of pondering this stuff. At some point in time, I had to stop pondering and get down to business. And misotheism is it. And it's freeing. I don't cower over what he or mankind can do to me. So, you're right. I'm not open to it, because it doesn't matter what 'it' is. I'm still going to feel the same.

Anyways, I haven't skipped any main point. I said you can call your paradox anything you like. That's all the OP asked.

Yes, but I mean it to be a contradiction that is possible.

Already have. At least to god. As to JS, it's one of my few blocked, though I reserve the right to pop in unexpectedly.
