KENT HOVIND, **THE** Creationist... tax dodger?

Hovind has a May 18 court date to face three misdemeanor charges arising from his refusal to obtain a permit to construct a metal building on his property. Hovind said the building meets or exceeds building codes, and he objects to the permitting process as an undue expense on the church.

If Hovind doesn't like the law, he needs to work to change it, or be prepared to suffer the consequences for his civil disobedience. Objecting to a law you don't like is not the answer.
 
Honestly, so what? I can't give you a Latin phrase for it, but I'm pretty sure that pointing to the misbehavior of a single member of a group and then essentially pinning that behavior on the entire group ("Those whacky Creationists... what won't they do next?") is a fallacy.

I agree. So what? Unless of course, the guy is one of those hard core Christians, always going on about the sins of others (particularly other religions). Then I mock his hyprocracy.
 
I thought Kent Hovid lived in a split-level home in suburban Denver. Oh wait, that's where he got his "Ph.D";)

Its just a bit of caustic humor, I would be certain Scribble isnt criticizing a group based on the actions of one.
 
Moron! Not you scribble, Hovind. G*d d@mn f*#c$ @#! (*%$ #$@/*& $#%*& !&)%$ $#

Let me just say the guy is a real jerk ok.

Edited to add: I'm libertarian and I don't like taxes. But damn it if you don't like the system work to change the system. If it is civil disobedience then perhaps I could understand but this guy is a greedy scam artist who takes peoples money and gets them into trouble with the IRS. Ok perhaps they deserve it for being so stupid but sheesh.

Ok, I feel better now.
 
Hovind, who has not been charged, suspects he is being targeted because of his religious beliefs.

I had no idea that it was the IRS policy to let the rest of us slide. Damn, I just paid my taxes too.
 
"This is based on misperceptions," Stoll said. "They don't understand how the church is created and registered, how it operates under church law, which is entirely separate from secular authorities."

Hahaha....misperceptions? The church is like any other building, is it not?? And must be registered like any other building, does it not??

Friday afternoon, Stoll sent a letter to Schneider, demanding the return of the property. Attached to the letter wasdocumentation that Hovind's operations - including Dino Adventure Land, Faith Baptist Church, Creation Science Evangelism and CSE Enterprises - operate under an umbrella organization recognized by the State of Washington.

Anybody who names one of their Creation propaganda places "Dino Adventure Land" needs to be locked away.
