"A majority of people once believed the sun revolves around the earth, or that the earth is flat. They probably wrote lots of books about it too. It did not make either belief into a fact"
And by the same token it does not make Mahons beliefs fact.
"although I was surprised to find him now working for the department upholding truth, justice and the New Zealand way."
Which Dept would that be, or has it completely gone along with the dinosaurs??
