Hmmm.. Again, I love the idea of the God, but if he considers himself to be righteous, and he thinks he is spreading goodness, and he is not aware of any unfortunate consequences for the non-believers, he seems a lot like many of the deities that different religious groups worship today. It doesn't need to be said, but such deities are still considered benevolent by most standards. Now while i'm all for the Mortals of the world seeing him as benevolent, I think there should probably be some unknown aspect of him that is a little more obviously evil, if you get my meaning, just so it's obvious that he is actually a part of the group of Princes of Ruin. I feel like he should knowingly use those who don't follow his law for some purpose that he knows is selfish. Though what that could be, I don't know.

He believe that he knows best. One of his elements is also dominion. And the fact that he builds his realm with the souls of those who have not upheld his laws is an example that I believe would work. He doesn't have to do that, he chose to do so.

Think of him as Lawful evil instead of Chaotic evil.
