A Hovind quote about dino and ark 06262016

This seems to me to be pretty good evidence, further evidence that is, that Kent is intent on continuing his tax cheatin’ ways while trying to do all he can to try and make himself look legitimate.

Maybe it will work for him; maybe not!

    4. I realize that the Ministry has limited space for limited volunteers and I may not be able to be used by them at this time. If I am replaced, that does not mean that I am unsatisfactory, it may only mean that another person more qualified than myself has been chosen at this time.

I currently have no known mental, medical, health care or other physical condition to stop me from serving or I will immediately give notification and apply my right to refuse such activity.

  4. Really Kent, what is going on with all the nominee entitites you are using to keep your money stream going.

    The above terms and conditions states, in part:

    “CSEM, CSE, and Dinosaur AdventureLand are Florida Corporations,
    one for profit,
    one DBA, and
    one not for profit.”

    Based on the above 2 comments, it looks like CSEM is a non-profit Florida corporation (not-for-profit) and that CSE is the for-profit Nevada, not Florida, corporation.

    I did not find any such thing as “Dinosaur AdventureLand” as a “DBA” as far as any Florida or Nevada corporation.

    What’s that?

    I suspect that the DBA is simply you, Kent Hovind, operating as a proprietor and making all the money you can under that name while trying to claim that the money is actually going to one or both of the other corporations.

    Of course, given your preference for secrecy, Kent, I can only speculate as the scheming going on and the various and sundry entities you may use as nominees to keep the feds from latching on to something and helping you pay down your $10,000,000 or so in debt.

    I look forward to finding out, Kent, how your antics might affect your promised request for early-out of your Supervised Release which you indicated you would be filing for in about 3 weeks or so.

    —————————————————————-

    • My take is it is not worth much, if anything at all. I figure that if such issues were raised it they would be decided based on the “facts and circumstances” and not contrived “because I say so” arguments.

      Organizations can certainly have volunteers that get some nominal “benefits” without being classified as “employees”. Kent may have some of those as well as others who may try to be put in that category by Kent, but such an effort might fail if properly called into question and properly developed.

      There is plenty of case law dealing with specific “facts and circumstances” regarding such things.
      Maybe Kent will eventually have his case added to that historical record.

      —————————————————

  5. I just noticed these additional claims on Kent’s 2peter3.com website!

    https://2peter3.com/mission-vision-and-statement-of-faith/

    (excerpts)

    “Creation Science Evangelism Ministries, Inc. is a non-profit 501(c)3,
    public charitable status 509(a)2 with a EIN# 81-1424226.

    Creation Science Evangelism, Inc. is a for profit Corporation donating
    profits each year to CSEM, Inc.

    Dinosaur Adventure Land is a DBA.

    All serve as ministries with the common mission and goal stated here.

    We host regular services for the Church body, and
    therefore are a Church as established by Jesus Christ.”

    Kent is welcome to “host regular services for the Church body” as he sees it and claim he is a Church, but that does not make any of his business operations a church for tax purposes.
