Creationists Sell Christian Theme Park To Themselves To Avoid $700,000 In Taxes



And God said unto Noah, "Avoid thy financial obligations."

Officials in Williamston, Ky., are worried that revenue generated by Ark Encounter, an Old Testament-themed amusement park, may soon dry up following an odd maneuvering by the property's owners.

Ark Encounter LLC sold its primary plot of land to its nonprofit affiliate for just $10 despite the property being valued as high as $48 million, the Lexington Herald-Leader reports, which could be the home of the giant Noah's Ark replica's preliminary move to declaring itself exempt from having to pay taxes.

5. Typical Republican Christian tactic - get the taxpayers to build your shit, take all the profit,

and give nothing back to the taxpayers except "Oh, but we're teaching about Jeebus and saving souls!"

****ing piles of shit. Ken Hamm is a pile of shit. Creation Scientists are piles of shit. Right wing Christians are piles of shit.

great big stinking useless asshole piles of shit.

Should be ****ing embarrassed - they're so far away from the Beatitudes and anything Jesus taught, that Buddhists and Muslims and atheists are better Christians than they are.


And so on.


Golly - I wonder if any Democrats ever shook and shimmied to avoid paying taxes. Hm. You know, I seem to recall one...

I wonder if there's another prominent example...hm....

Good to see you again buddy.

Once again, libs pissed off by people using LEGAL methods to avoid paying taxes.

If any of them actually paid taxes, I'm sure they'd use any way possible to decrease the burden.

So, Ken Ham & Crew decreased their taxes by following the law. If you don't like a provision of the law, change it, moron.
