I was disappointed to see Maciej Giertych's letter "Creationism, evolution: nothing has been proved" (Nature 444, 265; 2006) published without any disclaimer or comment by the editors. Even though I am aware that Nature asked Giertych to comment on the News story "Polish scientists fight creationism" (Nature 443, 890–891; 2006), I can find no justification for publishing pseudoscientific arguments in this first-rate scientific magazine.
