This is not a question an atheist can answer. Pardon me, but it reminds me of a question dj2becker once asked me: [my paraphrasing...] "If you believed in God and knew that everything taught about God was true, what justification would you have for continuing to be an atheist?"

[2] I would torture them until they believed, and, if that didn't work,
[3] I would perhaps torture them to death as it wouldn't really matter and, given my belief in a torturer God, I might belief that it would act as a deterrent and/or motivation to other non-believers and people from sonship's "other worlds".
I might even hang them out, burning, on chains to display what I believed to be the "glory" of my torturer God.

If the torturer God ideology is actually true ~ torture in flames for eternity for being a non-believer as opposed to it being a punishment for not adhering to a code for morally sound living ~ then I can see only a kind of grotesque moral bankruptcy.
