An all-evil God seems to be like solipsism: psychologically impossible to believe. I think theism is committed to two principles: (1) life is generally worth living, and (2) procreation is generally good. If there is an all-evil God, we should embrace antinatalism.

Don't you mean a maximally good deity?
Fixed.

An evil god is ridiculously improbable. The claim is that it’s similarly plausible to a good god.
I don’t
That’s because this was an article about whether a good god is likelier than an evil one.
