	Jeff McQuinn wrote a one-line article about my writing in which
he said ``Man, I don't even believe in God and I think your [sic] sick!''
Well, Jeff, unfortunately you've made the assumption that because there
isn't a good God as described in the Bible, there must none at all.
This is not so. The possibility of an evil God is not only present,
it is much more likely than no God or good God scenarios, as supported
by the evidence of the world around you. You assume that anyone who
believes in the existence of an evil God must be ``sick.'' On the
other hand, I think that anyone who denies the possibility or the
likelihood of the existence of an evil God is at best working from
a faulty assumption, or at worst deceptively misled.
