Yes they do, and they shouldn't, and an amusement park is not a church.


I am not sure what you are upset about
Churches get tax breaks and businesses that create jobs get tax
breaks.

Would they give Sea World the same tax break?

That is the question you have to ask.


Because tax breaks for churches support religion. That is the answer you
have to get.


Why are you against jobs? Aren't union guys going to be building and
maintaining the amusement park?

Yeah, right, of course it is. What it is is another crock of religious
crap.


Only an asshole like you would attack half of a newsgroup with your
intolerant, knuckledragging on Christmas Eve.. What a hater..

Merry Christmas Harry. May the spirit of the Lord haunt you till the day
you meet him;)




You mean, you *believe* a guy named Noah built an ark that size and
stuffed it with a pair of every animal on the earth and all the food and
water that would require for 40 days?

You believe that?

Well, your check is in the mail...


Do you doubt that a flood occurred?

I thought, when I read your response, "Is he really *that*
simple-minded? Naw...he couldn't be."

On reflection, I think you are that simple-minded.

Hell, man, there are floods every year on many parts of the earth. Why
would I dispute that there were floods in "biblical" times? But a flood
that covered the entire earth for 40 days, and that a bloke named Noah
built the ark of the old testament and housed a pair of every creature
on earth?

Nope. I don't believe that happened. It's just a religious that a number
of older religions share.

Harry believes his relatives have only had opposing thumbs for a couple of generations. I have no problem letting him believe that and whatever else he likes as long as he doesn't try to belittle the beliefs of others at Christmas time and periodically throughout the year.

Harry's ancestors, that is the ones that walk upright, are most likely Christian. In fact, Russia is predominantly Christian.

Perhaps in the minds of the uneducated and those who want a theocracy,
this is a christian nation. In reality and in law, it is not.

He has to belittle others.. It's all the worthless drain on society
has...



I'm neither superstitious or stuporstitious.

Preliminary OK for Ark tax breaks
Lexington Herald-Leader
Dec 21, 2010


FRANKFORT — A state tourism board gave preliminary approval Monday for
a religious theme park to apply for up to $37 million in state tax
incentives.

The six-member board voted unanimously to give preliminary approval to
the Ark Encounter park in Grant County.

The centerpiece of the Ark Encounter park will be a 500- by-75-foot
wooden ark, billed as a replica of the biblical Noah's Ark. The
proposed project has garnered national and international attention,
with critics questioning whether granting state tax incentives to the
project would violate laws separating church and state.

Gov. Steve Beshear has said the law does not allow the state to
discriminate against a for-profit business because of its subject
matter. But some groups concerned about the separation of church and
state have said they might sue the state if the incentives are granted.
- - -

They'd damn well better sue the state. Tax incentives for a religious
theme park?

Oh, I didn't mark this OT because it concerns a boat, albeit a
mythical one.

"... a 500- by-75-foot wooden ark, billed as a replica of the biblical
Noah's Ark..."

Yeah, right, of course it is. What it is is another crock of religious
crap.




Off topic.

Merry Christmas!

However they support all religions equally. The founding fathers of
this great country were religious men for the most part and thought
that support and respect for religion was a good thing as long as no
one religion was favored over another. That's a fairly easy concept
to grasp isn't it?

Not to worry - the holidays will be over soon and you can take off
that uncomfortable Scrooge costume you've been wearing, the one that
seems to get your undergarments all in a knot.

Meanwhile, tis the season to be jolly...
