Unemployment catches a break, Tax troubles in creationist paradise

Good day for green shoots; Bad day for giving unto Caesar what is Caesar’s

Friday, August 7, 2009

GOOD DAY FOR: Green shoots, after U.S. job losses fell to 247,000 in July, a far smaller number than expected and enough to bump the national unemployment figure down to 9.4 percent, from 9.5 percent. It is also the first dip in jobless numbers since April 2008. The Labor Department figures are the latest sign that the economy is turning around. (Reuters)

BAD DAY FOR: Giving unto Caesar what is Caesar’s, after a federal judge approved the sale of creationist theme park, Pensacola’s Dinosaur Adventure Land, because owners Kent and Jo Hovind,owe $430,400 in back taxes. The Hovinds argue that since they are employed by God, they needn’t pay income or property taxes. (Mother Jones)

Posted by steve, Friday, August 7, 2009, 6:40 pm I work at a high risk loan office. We give loans to about anyone, under the right conditions. But 2 big red flag characters are those are in the repo industrybecause they know the game all too well and those who work for Godbecause God will justify their inability/lack of desire to paythe kicker to me is that Jesus directly commanded to render onto Caesar...

Posted by MichaelJackson, Tuesday, August 11, 2009, 11:53 am When Jesus said render unto Caesar it was a setup. Apparently for people such as Mr. Hovind. Well because Caesar is on none of our currency, YO. Only superscription I see refers to Jesus Christ, In God we trust. Mr. Hovind understands the LAW. They have no RIGHT to tax the church in such a manner. Truth is this, thay cant stand the message of the truth getting in the way of their lies being told over at Disney, so they have KIDNAPPED HIM....Neverland all over again.
