The Prime Minister of our country praised the demonstration of citizens engaged in illegal activities as a "wonderful demonstration of Democracy." Actually, what it really demonstrated was the AWFUL abandonment of the Rule of Law as the basis for an orderly society.
Our current Government has surrendered the Rule of Law, entrenched in our constitution, to the Rule of Greed, entrenched in the gambling industry. What a sad day for Bahamians! Hear the Word of the Lord!

"When the godly are in authority, the people rejoice. But when the wicked are in power, they groan. A just king [or Prime Minister] gives stability to his nation, but one who demands bribes destroys it."

"The godly care about the rights of the poor; the wicked don’t care at all. If a ruler pays attention to liars, all his advisers will be wicked."

"When the wicked are in authority, sin flourishes, but the godly will live to see their downfall. When people do not accept divine guidance, they run wild. But whoever obeys the law is joyful. Fearing people is a dangerous trap, but trusting the Lord means safety. Many seek the ruler’s favor, but justice comes from the Lord." (Proverbs 29:2, 4, 7, 12, 16, 18, 25, 26 NLT)

What God Says re. Oppressive Leaders, Greedy Citizens and Hypocritical Prophets:

LEADERS:When there is rot within a nation, its government topples easily. But wise and knowledgeable leaders bring stability. A wicked ruler is as dangerous to the poor as a roaring lion or an attacking bear. A ruler with no understanding will oppress his people, but one who hates corruption will have a long life.

PEOPLE: A hard worker has plenty of food, but a person who chases fantasies ends up in poverty. Greedy people try to get rich quick but don’t realize they’re headed for poverty. Greed causes fighting; trusting the L ord leads to prosperity. (Proverbs 28:2, 15, 16, 19, 22, 25 NLT)

PROPHETS: “I saw that the prophets of Samaria were terribly evil, for they prophesied in the name of Baal and led my people of Israel into sin. But now I see that the prophets of Jerusalem are even worse! They commit adultery and love dishonesty. They encourage those who are doing evil so that no one turns away from their sins. These prophets are as wicked as the people of Sodom and Gomorrah once were.” (Jeremiah 23:9-14 NLT).

What an amazing disgrace!

The only reason PC ain openly supporting yes or just legalizing it in the first place is because he think he can keep support of the church after its done. And fa sure a lot of the church leaders after the vote will say it was the people not Christie who made the decision( if a yes vote wins) and be righr back in line for their plp handours they accustomed to. And if NO wins he ll tell Flowers it was the people not him. Christie trying to keep a win win situation for himself with the numbers folks and the church. Rt. Hon "Neutral Christie".

Comrades in recent days leading up to Monday's January 28 vote, PM Christie has "come forward" becoming the leading advocate for the 'Vote Yes' campaign and this is not just political gossip.

Unfortunately, Bahamians who are still undecided are the main targets of this more aggressive effort by Bahamaland's PLP government, who fabricate whatever they think will encourage their horse to cross the finish line in first place.

Who would have thought that at the time when thousands of Bahamians were "reluctantly" casting their votes for PLP candidates on Decision Day 2012, that they would so quickly witness such a verbal shakedown by the very PLP's, that they were warned not to trust with the powerful instruments of Bahamaland's government?
