NZ Skeptics
The NZ Skeptics is a New Zealand incorporated society, with the aim of promoting critical thinking.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=NZ Skeptics )〕 The main areas of interest to the NZ Skeptics are claims of psychic abilities, alternative medicine, creationism and other pseudoscientific claims. ==History==
The NZ Skeptics was co-founded (as the New Zealand Committee for the Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal) by David Marks, Denis Dutton and others in 1986.〔 Other similar organisations exist in the USA (Committee for Scientific Inquiry), Australia (Australian Skeptics) and India (Indian CSICOP). Denis Dutton was the first chair; Vicki Hyde took over as the first chair-entity (a title devised by Hugh Young both to be all-inclusive and to parody inclusiveness) from 1997–2010; Gold (his only name), who founded the New Zealand Skeptics in the Pub, was chair-entity from 2010-2014; Mark Honeychurch is the current chair.〔 Vicki Hyde continues in the society as a media spokesperson.
