Of course it's stupid to say something sucks because it doesn't exist. But I don't think that's what anyone here is trying to say. This poeme is essentially just the argument concerning the supposed contradiction between the existence of a benevolent, all-powerful Jesu and the existence of suffering. The author is saying that if God existed, he would suck (or at least could not be benevolent AND all powerful), so a benevolent, all-powerful God does not exist. I'm not saying I agree or disagree with this argument, but I definitely think you have misinterpreted the poeme if you think it means "God sucks because He doesn't exist". If you think that, then I'm afraid it is you who is the one who is wearing no trousers, not me.
