A historical proposition close to dystheism is the, deus deceptor, "evil demon" (dieu trompeur) of René Descartes' Meditations on First Philosophy, which has been interpreted by Protestant critics as the blasphemous proposition that God exhibits malevolent intent. while] dystheism is the thesis that God exists but is not wholly good."
