Via Pharyngula, I get a link to this letter-to-the editor of a New Zealand newspaper:

http://www.nzherald.co.nz/category/story.cfm?c_id=301&objectid=10424908

Its from an Anglican priest arguing against nameing New Zealand a "Christian Nation".  Why?  Because he's an American ex-pat who says he left America because of the intolerance and bigotry of the religious right, and it's influence on the government.

It is a very measured and cogent letter.
