@proudloudand fnm ...while you are free to express your own views to the dismay of many. Well that is quite undemocratic isn't it? What makes your opinion more valuable than his or anybody else's?

As much as I dislike reading your shallow, often irksome bloviations you have a right to do so and so does the writer of this article!

... in your diatribe you both contradict yourself and expose your hypocrisy. It seems you are unaware that there are different laws at work in our world. While you may not believe it, there is a natural, civil and spiritual context to our existence. Those who are Christians consider the spiritual context when you do not, creating a divergence of opinion!

People have a right to choose any course of action they want, but there are spiritual and natural consequences of those choices. Same sex relationships may have civil approval but violation of spiritual laws cause problems people do not have natural explanations for like addiction and mental illness etc. which plagues the LGBT community. Sexual activity is always by choice and therefore is not an immutable characteristic like race and should not be treated as such!

You call Christians hateful, but why can you not respect their views in the same way that you desire they would respect the views of others. You call for tolerance while being intolerant? Your views can easily perceived to be equally as hateful as those you seem to condemn. At the end of the day, God will judge, unless you presume to take His place!

... because he knows a minimum wage increase will not cause a minimum increase in productivity or efficiency nor will it cause a minimum decrease in pilferage!

repost:

-Long term effects of mRNA vaccines are unknown

-The rates of re-infection with different strains of virus are quite low with less side effects in subsequent infections.

-Those being vaccinated are still being infected with other strains of virus

-We have no idea how extensive community spread of infections was in the Bahamas, we never did mass antibody testing, so how can we determine the extent to which vaccines are needed?

Why do we need to vaccinate against a virus with 2-3% global mortality rates? This seems to be a push to start a global vaccination trend in future pandemics which will probably occur more frequently for the benefit of a few! This is becoming about control, NOT health and safety!

-To restore the health of our economy it seems more sensible to ask tourists to have had a vaccine.

-Those who want a vaccine should enter their names on a list at their local clinics if they choose, but this should not be pushed on the population.

Our leaders need to learn that following what others do without thought is not leadership, its sheepish!

... sidewalks or people putting their lives at risk daily with inadequate protection during a national health crisis-- that is the question and the answer should be obvious!

Discipline and abuse are not the same thing. The key is to avoid abuse. You can really screw up a child (or adult) with verbal abuse, even if they have never experienced corporal punishment!

Clearly, some of those who should commit suicide don't, Commissioner!
