A juicy lawsuit in Kentucky's Future?

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! |
