I am willing to wager that if Minnis stays in Killarney and runs as an independent, then the PLP wins this seat. Name the terms.

A) Tying gambling to "scripture" is dubious, at best: 1) What if some Bahamians don't follow scripture - why then should they not be allowed to gamble? 2) "Scripture" itself is ambiguous as to whether gambling is a sin. 3) Why focus the scriptures mainly on gambling? I am looking at you alcohol, tv that shows anything remotely controversial (sex, drugs, guns, rock n roll). The list goes on.
B) Why sensor? A grown adult has every right to spend his/her hard earned money on whatever legal pursuit or endeavor they choose (comic book collecting/over-eating in restaurants/drinking/gambling). In no society - and certainly not The Bahamas - should the government attempt insert itself into the private lives of its citizens. If the government does that, then call The Bahamas either North Korea or Saudi Arabia.
C) What about casinos? The age-old adage remains: why not the clarion call to review and reform casinos? Or does Front Porch believe that white people (tourists) are better able to control their gambling habits than the "ignorant, poor working class" of The Bahamas? (By the way, for those of us who know who Front Porch is, we absolutely know that he or she thinks this way.)
No, the horse is out of the barn - for better or worse, gambling is legal. Let free adults spend as they so desire, keep the hypocritical church (raffles, anyone?) out of this and let's leave it at that. Even from the back porch, I think this makes the most sense.

Nah, he is going to win Fox Hill, easily. It won't be competitive. Not saying he should win, but rather that he will.

Well, she has run a constituency and the House of Parliament for the past 5 years - so she has run something, no?

Neither party needs Rick Fox. Neither should offer him a nomination. If he wants to run as an independent, then fine. But this is all a power play for Rick. There are a host of other things that he can do if he truly wanted to make a difference in The Bahamas - 1) Investment (private) in education; 2) Subsidies for housing for lower to middle class; 3) Healthcare/children relief via PPP initiative (is currently being done by other HNWI) Rick just wants to be PM to assuage his enormous ego.

Property taxes - due to the tax thresholds, property tax does not affect most Bahamians.
Fishing fees - a luxury tax, mostly on the wealthy. A housekeeper at Atlantis or a government worker at the Ministry of Social Services, for example (combined, the personification of our two largest employers) are unaffected by these fees.

Most likely just to say that he will have no further discussions about the matter. It is preemptive - nothing wrong with that.

1) Coalition will pull more votes from the FNM. I don't even think that is debatable. Voters will not reject an incumbent government in favour of a coalition. Comparatively, the PLP's announced candidates are vastly superior to the FNM's. Again, I am not sure that this is debatable. And to connect to your first point, the Coalition has not produced - to date - a single viable candidate. So, stuck with the choice of a coalition, PLP or FNM "lacklustre" (your words) candidate, I don't see voters electing the coalition.
2) Last election was contested during a period that the known world had never in history experienced. And, FNM voters were fed up with Minnis. Different circumstances this time. Voter turnout will be comparable to non-Covid elections.
3) Coalition has no chance of winning the Golden Isles by-election. None. Interesting that your substantive argument appears to be that "things are different now", but then you conclude by comparing this by-election to one that occurred over 15 years ago! Not saying that you are wrong, just that your premise did not match your conclusion.

Joeblow, you are moving the goal post. Your initial post claimed "in all of human history there were only two sexes." Hrysippus, correctly, notes that your initial statement is not true.

So these problems only occurred in the past four years under Davis? At least pretend to be objective.
