Ken Ham Demands Taxpayers Pay For 'One Of The Greatest Evangelist Outreaches Of Our Day'
Submitted by Miranda Blue on Tuesday, 1/6/2015 4:31 pm
Ken Ham of Answers in Genesis was a guest on American Family Radio today, where he discussed with Tim Wildmon his new project building a Noahs Ark theme park in Kentucky. Ham insisted that the theme park, a complement to Ham's Creation Museum, has come under attack from intolerant liberals who want to deny it taxpayer funding. Last month, Kentuckys tourism board announced that the Noahs Ark park wouldnt be eligible for an $18 million tourism tax break because Answers In Genesis intends to use the site to proseletize and refuses to promise not to discriminate based on religion in its hiring. The board noted that [s]tate tourism tax incentives cannot be used to fund religious indoctrination or otherwise be used to advance religion," but Ham cried persecution, complaining that Kentucky had violated his fundamental rights by witholding the tax break. In the American Family Radio interview, Ham continued to portray himself as the victim of intolerant liberals (like Bill Nye) while also inadvertently bolstering the tourism boards case by announcing that the Noahs Ark park will be one of the greatest evangelist outreaches of our day, of our period in history.

I´ve been denied every tax break known to man just because I´m poor.
Screw that asshole and the Noah´s Ark he sailed in on.
