"Wrong? All of a sudden you are shy about using the word evil"

I am not shy to use the word. I just find that it carries so much extraneous baggage when interpreted by different religious people with different bibles and different Gods--that it needlessly confuses the discussion.

"Of course you are the penultimate judge of what is compassionate and rational"

Yes...I take responsibility for all my actions. I own my own judgments and choices.

"When Atheists get into power (usually by force) they immediately see the reasonableness of maintaining that power by killing anyone who disagrees with them"

That would be following some other dogmatic agenda. Atheism has no agenda. You are probably thinking of Communism or some other "izm".
