Tribanon. Agreed. "Stopped no matter what". Agreed. Now how.

We're quite good at limiting our options.

What a wonderful comment.
From a paid shill for BPC.
Their only care is about how much money they can extract from our country.
With friends like these, who needs enemies?
Banana 7, you are a disgrace.

Mr. Bodie,

The science that has come to light in the last 3 years is downright unnerving. There is not one aspect of our climatic changes that suggests good news. A religion that teaches that the earth was put here for our use, and our use alone, is at the basis of our disconnect. We brainwash our kids from day one on a belief system that is proving to be our undoing. Were people educated and exposed to the abundant and different religious beliefs extant in the world as a child, what percentage of Bahamians would choose Christianity by the age of reason? Clearly, it is lack of education, awareness and choice which funnels the majority of lemmings into a religion. It is great to have something in common with other people. However, what indication can you give that our belief system has brought this country to a better place? I look at trends. When I see the trajectory of this country alone, I can't but help think that we need to start over. There is precious little that I see which will lead us into a prosperous future.

Nope, not a word from Minnis, nor any of our other well educated Ministers.

You are correct, Mr. Plummer. Our economic system is the problem. How many people tops, have the basic education to understand this? How many people in The Bahamas? A number?

Mr. Bodie,
You've been living in a cave for too many years. Your reasoning on drilling for oil, along with many other issues you attend to in this paper are evidence of a lack of critical reasoning skills which permeate this country from top to bottom. Had you spent a few minutes looking at, and understanding, what the science says regarding our burning of fossil fuels, and the impacts on a country such as The Bahamas, you would be singing a different tune, I hope. Most of the time I allow your intellectual slop to go unchallenged. However, what the scientists are telling us seems to have no bearing on your irresponsible ramblings. The statistics are right there in from of us Bodie. Be it temperature records or any other metric which could be used to convince reasonable and intelligent people that we MUST change our ways. We seem to champion failure. Year after year, the metrics on how well The Bahamas is doing continues to slide, no matter the issue at hand. What we do best, and you have brought to a true art, is to continue to make excuses for intellectual and moral failure. This letter, Mr. Bodie, shows without a doubt, the very basis for these failures in this country. You have been a true leader in dragging this country down. Keep up the great work. The sad part is, you will be long gone by the time the shit truly hits the fan. You are very much a part of the untutored masses.

Basically, Rolle is saying The Bahamas is fine, but the people are flucked.

Imagine arguing against relaxing the economic stranglehold of a whole country due to their political leanings, simply for the economic benefit of our own economics. Seriously? Can any aspect of that thinking be considered Christian? Any at all ?Apparently we can ignore the dozens of illegal wars and the bombing of innocent people the world over by the world's superpower because they contribute to our economy. What a sad, sad commentary on the state of our "Christian" thinking. Jesus help these charlatans.

Exactly right!
