The thrust of my letter is directed at Rachel Bradman.

God is not hidden but lives daily by example in that the universe is an imponderable reality or, as I prefer to call it, God's mathematical joke.

Likewise with DNA, its discovery will not stop at a double helix but expand accordingly to incorporate greater considerations.

The whole point of life is that God is not the issue but man's existence is. It is man who needs God not God who needs man. Without the concept of God man is a "pair of ragged claws" on a vast shore awaiting the next wave, praying it will not be his last.

I suggest Miss Bradman it is the mediocre interpretation of scripture which infuriates your otherwise discerning mind rather than the Godhead itself.

Unlike Nietzsche the God of the universe is not dead but alive and well and lives in detail of our existence!
