Marriage for three
Gays should understand that most Bahamians regard marriage as a sacred institution with certain well-defined moral commitments.
Miller hypocrisy
SO Leslie Miller wants to exile transgenders and wants God to end the Earth now, I am sure God spends a lot of his spare time mulling over Mr Miller’s words of wisdom.
Why I will vote yes this time
Let me declare early on that I have a horse in this gender equality race.
A new day awaits after referendum
June 8th, maybe a new day for the following organisations around our Bahamas.
Stuck in the past
Galileo, who lived between 1564-1642, was a scientist/philosopher/astronomer and all round genius.
Morality and democracy - the debate
Thank God that, mercifully, the fiasco and total wastage of public funds on Junkanoo/Carnival has come and gone. The unwashed masses had their block party; plenty of loose behaviour; whining up; sexual gyrations and, I am sure, a degree of unprotected and licentious sexual escapades. The results, across the board, will be manifested within nine months.
Oh yes, the referendum
May I address the potential impact of the amendments when all is done and one presumes the voters approve (not guaranteed).
The use of public funds
I serve as the lead person for the referendum education group Think, Bahamas! It is our view that public funds should not be used to fund referenda campaigns.
Hope for Grand Bahama?
I applaud Terry Gape’s letter to the Editor in Thursday’s Freeport News. So many valid points about ‘the forgotten island’ of Grand Bahama.
Emergency sirens
On May 3, 2016, at approximately 4:22pm, a myriad of vehicles on Bernard Road attempted to pull off to the side of the road as the result of hearing the blaring siren of an ambulance owned by the Public Health Authority (PHA).
Are court fines really being paid?
In 2008, the Police conducted an investigation at a government ministry that resulted in the arrest of two persons, a female employee and a male contractor.
Rise and fall of the Elks
Fraternal organisations in the Bahamas are said to be a dying breed. There are numerous debatable reasons why this may be the case. I cannot speak for other organisations; I can only speak in regards to the one I dedicated up to if not over ten years of my life to.
What $5m gets you
Following up the $5m legal donation from Mr Nygard to the PLP
Puppet and the puppet master
In his rush to defend the hapless hopeless helpless leader of the opposition it seems Tennyson Wells forgot to throw in one key tidbit: an actual argument for why Dr Hubert Minnis would be a great prime minister.
Referendum Bill 3
In the news story on May 2 regarding the invitation sent to the YES Bahamas campaign to a live television debate on the gender equality referendum, I noticed that the purpose of Bill 3 is incorrectly stated.
