Calling me a YEC is like calling Yin/Yang, "Yang-only."
I understand.Look, on another internet forum, I went at it hammer and tongs with a Hovind supporter, so it's true that I know a lot more about Hovind and his legal problems than I care to. But I try to fight falsehood with truth.
Correctamundy!Not really, AV. Correct me if I'm wrong, but in a nutshell you believe the earth was ***created*** 6,000'ish years ago, with age embedded (whatever that even means).
Well you're certainly entitled to your mo.selfinflikted said:For all intents and purposes, you're a YEC, imo.
Good to see you back!selfinflikted said:Don't be ashamed of it. Own it. ROCK IT.

Of course not.
Hovind must have rattled the Devil's chains.
Thus ICR, DI and other [so-called] Christian orgainizations are bad-mouthing him.
(Note: I'm taking your word that they have said something negative about him. I don't know what it is specifically. But since you guys are so hurting to get the focus off of yourselves an on to these organizations, I'll just take your word for it and play along.)
That's not why he was in prison. He was in prison for failure to pay employment taxes and multiple counts of 'structuring' -- withdrawing money from the bank in amounts under $10,000 (to pay his employees under the table) so as not to set off bank reporting laws.
In this more recent trial, I believe the judge actually set aside the contempt conviction. I believe the other counts were dismissed, but the government could choose to bring him to trial again, since no verdict was reached.
Apparently Kent's charges have been dismissed.
Kent Hovind is a good example of the government and "powers that be" trying to silence the exposing of the TOE for what it is, and the persecution that anyone will face, if they publicly contradict this hoax AND spread the good news of the gospel and the truth of creation.

...
Kent Hovind paid all of the taxes he owed! The IRS and federal prosecutors could not find a way to throw Kent Hovind in prison (because he was under the law of 508c1A) so they indicted him on IRS structuring laws which were created to go after DRUG LORDS/TRAFFICKERS!
.Good to see you back!
Sigh. See what I mean?
Let me google that for you. In addition to the structuring convictions, he was convicted on 12 counts of "willful failure to collect, account for, and pay over federal income taxes and FICA taxes, totaling $473,818 for the 12 fiscal quarters of 2001–2003."
6018How many years between now and the day of the creation week when the Earth was created?
You'll get used to it!Thanks. The new site interface is horrible. HORRIBLE.
Not in my case.That would be YEC.
Like many crimes, it is the cover up that points to guilt.
"The judge stated that "Mrs. Hovind was in charge of the payroll," and that while "Mr. Hovind was the decision-making authority" at CSE and Dinosaur Adventure Land, Jo Hovind had cashed some 200 checks, all under $10,000, for a total of $1.5 million during a four-year period."

It was pretty obvious that they knew anything over 10k would be automatically reported to the IRS, and that they were trying to avoid the taxes they owed.
You'll get used to it!
Also, there's an option to go back to the old interface if you want to.
And still........, there were no charges for "tax evasion" . . .
See the quote and remember.....no convictions on "tax evasion" :
"On the next day Dr. Hovind did a radio broadcast. He prayed for himself in handling the situation and for the agents who raided him, and was charged with threatening an IRS agent because of that prayer. He claims his prayer was in no way threatening. He said something to the effect of, “God, I want you to handle these folks who came against me, I don’t know what they want, I can’t handle them, they are way too powerful for me, I turn them over to you, you judge them as you see fit.” He was later charged with 3 years in prison for this prayer for threatening an IRS agent in the performance of his duty. They arrested Dr. Hovind and his wife and they were arraigned in front of a Magistrate for three charges:
1) Twelve counts of not withholding taxes from employees, (According to Dr. Hovind, they didn’t have employees)
2) Forty-five counts of structuring (According to Dr. Hovind, they told him “you withdrew money out of your bank in amounts less than $10,000”),
3) Threatening an IRS agent (the “threatening” prayer)."
