Ken Ham files lawsuit against Kentucky

[Heywood]

Regardless of Kentucky law, wouldn't receiving government incentives while simultaneously trying to claim the right to discriminate on religious grounds violate the separation of church and state established by federal law?

Presumably Mr Ham will be suing to protect his rights on the under federal government's Religious Freedom Restoration Act and Kentucky's version of that act. I don't know that Ham wins. I just don't think the case is a slam dunk for one side or the other.

They way I see this playing out is this. Ham sues and looses. He abandons his "statement of belief" requirement (after everyone is already hired) and reapplies for the rebate. Since he is now in compliance with the law he gets his rebate. He also gets to play the victim card to his target market. '

Ham's biggest problem that I see is he doesn't know how to run theme parks which is why his attendance numbers for the creation museum are cratering.
