Where is God in gambling
Your God is too small. I'm sure you have heard this statement many times before. Is this true in the gambling debate?
Such a god is no God at all. That's a puppet pulled by strings of your own making. Christian theology must be God-directed and biblically informed. It must also stand the test of reason. Denominational dogma must never be interpreted as the voice of God. The undivided church must s...

Well done Greg Moss
Dear Editor,
Marco City MP Greg Moss has done well in defending his right to speak his own mind in Parliament.
Moss suffered attacks by members of his own Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) for saying he did not support the introduction of value-added tax as it harshly and unduly impacts the poor.
But he responded by saying the criticisms did not affect him, as he makes a point of doing all he can to...

o Keep your promises: People are motivated by people they trust.

Myths Bahamians believe in
Myth One: Did you know that over 80 percent of the people of The Bahamas believe that Crown land belongs to them? It has always been my understanding that Crown land was the property of the Crown, who in my understanding is the royal family of Europe. Do you really believe that the royal family of Europe would hand over to a small group of ex-slaves, who did almost nothing to improve these islands...

Threats to democracy
Dear Editor,
At the outset, allow me to state categorically that I am a long time supporter of the Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) and that I make absolutely no apologies for the same. I came up through the proverbial ranks under the leadership of the late and greatly lamented Sir Lynden Oscar Pindling.
Having said that, however, I call a spade a spade and philosophically the chips may fall where ...

The Joy of Mercy
Easter is the joy of mercy. The Passion of Christ from Maundy Thursday to Easter dawn is the summit revelation of Divine Mercy in Christianity. Jesus soothes the feet of apostle companions whom he knows will deny, betray and abandon him during his darkest nights of a soul tempted to hopelessness...
