It's already July in New Zealand. It's still June here in Idiot America.
Letters: Let's get creationism facts

Re Mandy Donne-Lee's claim (Letters, June 28) that Christians are among the most conservation-minded in the world, where she cites her supernatural nonentity in the sky that Christians invented thousands of years ago in their own image.
She goes on to claim evolution is a fact-free "fairy tale of epic proportions".
It's time for Mandy to provide evidential proof ie statistics/percentages comparing the "conservation-mindedness" of her fellow 21st century god-believers with other sects and atheists. While she's at it, let's hear which reputable peer-reviewed scientific journals have run papers debunking Darwinian evolution.

I like to look things up. I found this:
The Whanganui Chronicle is New Zealand's oldest newspaper. Based in Whanganui, it celebrated 160 years of publishing in September 2016. Local resident Henry Stokes first proposed the paper for Petre, as the town was then called, but initial publication was held back by lack of equipment. Wikipedia
"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne

Apparently there is at least one know-nothing anti-science Christian moron in New Zealand. This is from the Whanganui Chronicle.
