What is the water in Lake Eyre used for?

It is not often that Lake Eyre has any substantial quantity of water in it. The last time it was nearly full was 1989, and that was from local rain.

Alternatively, water from Queensland filters down through the Channel country and into Lake Eyre. The last time this method filled the lake was 1974 to 1976.

When it does have water in it, the water gradually dissolves the salt crust and the water becomes more salty than sea water over a period of time, which kills all of the fish, the water then evaporates and redeposits the salt.

The expense of building a desalination plant at Lake Eyre, given its remoteness, and the remote chance of there being sufficient water to justify a desalination plant on a regular basis, probably makes it a non-cost effective proposition.

Answer

Care must be taken in identifying those people who hold Christian views, compared to those who identify with Christianity as a cultural identity or for family association. An AC Neilsen poll taken in 2009 classified 50% of Australians as Christian; 5% Christian (Universal Spirit only); 3% Unsure (Christian background); 8% "Non-believer (Christian background)" - so 63% of Australians identified themselves in some way with Christianity, but only 50% were actual Christians.

Confirming a lower figure for actual believers, 49% of Australians said they believed in God, 11% believed in a "Universal Spirit" and 7% believed in both. Those who either believed in God (only) or God plus a Universal Spirit totalled 57%. These figures would presumably include Muslims and Jews.
