The truth is that this'''" The truth is that what you have written is not true but it epitomizes very well the sort of unfounded prejudice that abounds amongst many who profess to follow the great teachings of The Lord.

These religious leaders seem to be so obsessed with what happensin the privacy of other peoples bedrooms, have they not noticed that more than 70 peiole have been brutally murdered so far this year? It seems that being a gay person is worse and more concerning than being a murderer.

Anything to get a mention in the media. And what happened to those long Aragonite dollars he used to talk about?

There is no good reason why Bay Street should have even a single parking spot. reserved only for taxi drivers. Properly run cities will have designated taxi parking spots outside airports and sometimes train stations, they do not have dedicated taxi parking spots on their main shopping thoroughfare. A pick drop off place is acceptable but to tie up valuable real estate space in order to allow taxi drivers to try and solicit business from passing tourists is risible.

Where does Mr. Plummer think that rights come from? They are a human construct codified by governments. They change and evolve over time. The right to vote is a typical example of this; From men over the age of 21 years owning substantial land holdings through to the current Western democratic mean of any citizen over the age of 18 and of either gender.

If, as the COP Claims, 99% of police people are honest, and if the RBPF has 3,000, Police persons, then this country has, at , best, 90 dishonest police people on the force. And that is a "Best Case" Scenario; if you believe the Commissioner of the RBPF.

Ummm, where to start? Norman; have you ever lent someone a large sum of money? When they did not pay it back, citing reasons of religious belief, did you then happily lend them a further large sum of money? Ever since Majority rule, the Bahamas governments have had to borrow money to pay their obligations; mostly State Employed workers' salaries and pensions. If the country does not wish to pay back the eye watering 12 billion dollars that it has borrowed over the past 50 years or so, then how can it expect to be able to borrow more?
Have you noticed what has been happening to the economy in Argentina recently?

Brilliant. Valuable information which will sadly reach too few. And I am someone who has used Dr. Bonners pure castile soap exclusively for about 50 years now.
