Not just his property, but his mind as well:

Can't lose what you never had.

What's truly hilarious is all the Jesus freaks trying to defend his ridiculously unscrupulous actions. It appears that once duped, the blind follower mentality is a permanent scar on one's psyche.

A sign outside Dinosaur Adventure Land states that three grown children and "30 other dedicated people" serve with Hovind "in this unusual ministry."

Pleeeease tell me that "grown children" refers to Hovind's now-adult offspring. If it doesn't, I'd rather not know what it means. =>_<=

this in the comments on that article:

Quote:

"Yes the subject is tax fraud, but the fraud is the government's insistence on making a christian ministry pay taxes the fraud is the government trying to shut up a minister because he is right. Evolution is a religion supported by your taxes and forced on kids in public schools.

Yes, it is my position that Dr. Hovind is a minister and his staff are missionaries. Many of us are blessed by Dr. Hovind's teaching as he travels around the country and some parts of the world pointing out the fallacies of evolution and the scientific evidence for the flood and creation, (yes there is plenty of evidence take a few hours and look into it and quit being wilfully ignorant, if you still dont want to believe that's ok its your choice, remember we love choice).

He also raises the point you all should know, the government is endorsing a religious teaching in public schools in the form of evolution and the tenants of that faith are lies, but you suck it up because it claims to be science, check the facts folks.

So his church is unorthodox, he teaches the Bible in a fun manner, I'm sure many of you wouldn't step into a "church" so when someone meets your demands and creates a church that is fun you say it is not a church (and you accuse us of hypocricy).

Leave him alone to teach the Bible, or is it, you really do want the government to intrude in your lives."

HAHAHAHAHAHA!

I'd be willing to live in a fascist state for a few years if the dictator promised to eliminate or sterilize people like this /ugh

IMO the fascist state would most likely be led by people like that.

Q. How many times do the Fundies need to see their leaders caught out in financial or sexual shenanigans before they realise that their authority figures have feet of clay and are taking advantage of their disciples?

A. Apparently an unlimited number.
