The problem isn't our immigration policies. The problem is that he found his target audience here, morons that think religion can provide scientific answers.

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.
As ludicrous as I find your intepretation of the law, you never know what's going to happen in the United States of Jesus.
