Paul Hansen And Kent Hovind Go To A Bridge Tournament To Play Crazy Eights

Paul Hansen And Kent Hovind Go To A Bridge Tournament To Play Crazy Eights

Over and over again courts have said that there is nothing sinister in so arranging one’s affairs as to keep taxes as low as possible.

To demand more in the name of morals is mere cant.
