Title: Bahamian Hypocrisy

The gay cruise thing is revs playing politics to win supporters. Pick a 'non-issue' make noise and watch the fools flock to you and give you their money. They would rather condemn and judge others and listen to a corrupt reverend make them feel good, than actually practice anything moral and decent in their own lives. They happily point the finger and claim the splinter in their neighbours eye, while blissfully ignoring the log in their own eye! Bahamians, stop being hypocrites, religious nuts, ignorance uneducated morons and join the REAL world please. Open your eyes, your mind, read more, get out... the world is big and this rock is very, very small. Don't hide your womanizing, philandering and outside children habits by bashing gays - that doesn't make you Godly... it makes you a hypocrite!

Title: What would Jesus do?

How do we expect to draw these people to Christ, if we are killing them before we get the opportunity to be a witness. We get ship loads of tourists who are adulterers, fornincators, liars, etc in our ports everday - we live, work and worship in our churches with them as well, but we are not worried about morality and decency in these cases. Why are we so ready to destroy the gays, they are God's children too. Leave these people alone and let your Christian walk be a testimony to them. Spread the gospel of LOVE

Title: The christian tourism killers

Well here we go again,the poor gay tourists are going to get it from the christians.This third world mentality has got to stop.(by the way i am not gay)Having watched the last documentary of the discusting behavior of the baptists etc towards the last gay tourists we were lucky not to have suffered very bad repercussions.A tourist is a tourist they are not coming over to corrupt our society so leave them alone and get on with the business of saving our almost corrupt society.

Title: What morality and decency????

This pastor is a fool... and probably a hypocrite too. A boat load of criminals and adulterers could not threaten the morality and decency of my beloved Bahamas; the most they could do is just join in with what's already going on - immorality and indecency.
A boat load of gay people just want to come here and spend their money. PLEASE LET THEM! PLEASE! Doesn't he know we're in a recession? This is not the time to let ridiculous bible-thumping con-artists talk a bunch of foolishness up in the newspaper.
These are serious times and I'm tired of airplane owning, benz driving, little girl molesting, sweathearting, porn watching Pastors leading Bahamians around like lambs to the slaughter.
They're worse than politicians, because while politician's lie, cheat and steal, at least they don't do it in the name of the most high.

Title: You have to be puttin da robe over

After working and living in the Bahamas for 5 years, and seeing what "values" are exercised by the local elements, the Pastors are hardly in a position to point fingers. A threat to morality and decency from a boatload of guys that could be employed as interior decorators and florists ? How about the local Rev in the Bahamas that drives around in a Rolls Royce while Bahamians are suffering through a huge economic downturn. How about tourists literally being slaughtered in their hotel rooms ? How about tourists being held up at the Queen's staircase ? How about tourists being held up at horse ranches ? Here's a good one, how about Fathers' Day in the Bahamas, talking about mass confusion, its commonly accepted that married men have "Sweeties on the side". You talk about flaunting contrary social behaviour, I would say, after a great deal of experience living in New Providence, good. Quite honestly, I found a good many of you, Revs, Police, Government officials, etc., to be animals, and corrupt ones at that. Why don't you (the Pastors) do something productive with your time (as according to many media reports, The Punch included, ) and actually contribute to your society , rather than poach on it. On a final note, you should be grateful people are actually coming to New Providence on purpose these days, the daily news report suggest it is a place that really should be avoided.
