"Tell me about the 'god' you don't believe in"

Dave Bish has an interesting and helpful post about engaging meaningfully with those who declare faith in a 'non-god'.  Rather than often being simply silenced by the seeming trump-card of professed atheism, we should explore more fully the nature and character of the 'god' that they believe does not exist.  The response will invariably be to describe an ugly parody of the One True Biblical God, a 'god' that Christians don't believe in either. This leaves the door open to clarifying misconceptions about God generally and Christ in particular.
Great post, worth reading and musing on.
