This is how it is.

Religions cults do not have as monopoly on rape, torture, and murder.

Correct. Only dogmas do.

Nihilists can also rape, torture, and murder.

But that's not why they do.

Atheists can be "evil" too but that's not why.

"I'm evil because I don't believe in God," literally makes no sense.

"I'm evil because I don't believe pigs can fly," literally makes no sense.

"I'm evil because I don't believe Tom is Elivis' love child with a Martian," literally makes no sense.

"I'm evil because I don't believe life has meaning," literally makes no sense.

"I'm evil because I'm a sadistic twisted fuck who enjoys it," makes sense. Change it for any reason that makes sense - revenge, anger, jealousy, etc.
