That is correct. If the priest who marries you is not a "Marriage Officer," under the law, then you are not married.

Economist says...

"The Bahamas is a well established Judeo-Christrian nation whose citizens strongly believe that love of the flesh does not trump all else."

Go to the PMH and see all those babies who were created as a result of "the flesh trumping everything else". Emmmm now there is a Reality Check for you.

Thank you LBT.

Sad at what a backward country we are.

But, then again, our flagging economy is indicative of our outdated and backward thinking.

When you hire those that can't even get grade D BGCSE's this is the incompetent Customs that you get.

The truth is that they can't keep up.

Economist says...

The Big Difference is that Obama quickly showed himself to be a leader.

Since Minnis failed then I think LBT is correct to make a bid for a leaderless party.

Margaret Thatcher, Indira Gandhi, Angelica Merkel all would have and did.

"Couriers are a new business" You have got to be joking, or are you just that slow.

Economist says...

Why are you even contesting it?

You had 2 years as Leader. You failed to discharge your duty as Leader.

When you were elected, I had no problem with you as Leader. If you had discharged your duty, many people, like myself, would have been supporting you today and there would be no challenge.

Your failure, after a full 18 months as Leader, to fill the position led me to look for a replacement or another party. I was frustrated with waiting for you to show some leadership.

If you are re-elected I will not be voting FNM. Not only do I have no faith in you now, but I don't think that you have a grasp of what is really needed to save our Bahamas.

He has learned well from the PLP. He is playing to the grass roots. He is offering "pie in the sky".
