Something I know!
The last time I heard anyone use the term "False Muster" it was my brother describing a case between a 'tax patriot' and the State. He said his friend was released because he accused the court of false muster. This concept (ridiculous!) is that all US courts are actually military courts because of the gold fringe on the flag. So to appear in court as a civilian is against the law. I am nearly positive that this didn't really happen, but my brother loves to tell the David and Goliath story. If this is where Hovind is comming from he is scarier than I gave him credit for.
But that would explain the lack of jurisdiction. They (these tax patriots) believe all US courts are military and the IRS is a 'foregn power'. Be afraid, be very afraid!

Re-Reading Beagle
Herepton writes:
a racist like Darwin who conceived of human evolution after his ''Beagle'' visit to Tierra del Fuego. Darwin deemed the Fuegians "the lowest form of humanity on earth....In 1838 while struggling to understand how evolution worked, Darwin's thoughts returned to the Fuegians and their apparent similarity to primates in the London Zoo" (Larson 2004:67). This is the origin of human evolution, after the theory was conceived and the first drawing of the Tree of Life by Darwin in 1837.
Sorry, but I have to call bull crap. I haven't read Larson's Evolution but if he claims that about Darwin it is full of crap. I have Darwin's Voyage of the Beagle in front of me and I challenge you to show me where he says Fuegians are like primates in the zoo. He talks about their 'primitive' culture and apparent (by his standard) imperviousness to cold. Before posting this I just reread the chapter. One of his friends on the Beagle is a Fuegian who was captured years before and brought along as a translator (along with two others).
I do not have Larson's book, but if he makes this claim he is wrong. I will order a copy and verify.

Re: Well ...
Well..whatever (pun intended)
Let me guess, you also think the gold trim on court flags is from a maritime property seizure executive order created by Eisenhower and therefore all US courts are therefore nullified.
You also think that Dept. of Treasury cabinet holders must relinquish their US citizenship and swear allegiance to the UN.
You see, I have a relative that is a 'gold bug'. He makes all of your claims as well as the ones I mentioned above. That is why I always laugh when watching a certain TV show with a character who owns "Dale's Dead Bugs"
"Valentines Day is a conspiracy from the military-florist complex"
"Dentistry is a plot by the UN to hide our nation's silver in our teeth"
"Sex education is a UN plot to insure zero population growth"
"Peanut allergies are peanuts fighting back, they are sick of being eaten"
Fun stuff, please keep it comming!
And to be on topic, I have been celebrating Hovind's 10 year sentence. And rolling at his blog. Making lemonade, it would appear
