Could proudly immoral people lead/cause the increasing of the moral reservoir (whatever that means)?

At least one characteristic of moral leadership should be honesty. Has this administration been one whose word has been its bond?

News Breaking Now

A Jamaican man has a canadian airline on the ground at gun point demanding to be taken to Cuba.

Barbados has seen thousands of Jamaican coming in to Barbados within recent years and staying illegally and committing crimes.

Lord help us if they start to exhibit the same behaviour in Barbados like they do in Jamaica.

Parro Greenidge you really are dumb you totally missed the point of the post above.

You and your party should be the last group to speak of morals as you have none, least you forget your pretend leader and her vicious beating attacks on innocent young ladies, you seem not to remember the viciousness of her attack on ???

Give me a break Parro Greenidge.

Dark KNIGHT it seems that you are suffering from some sort of severe memory lost, the most corrupt goverment this country have ever seen was between 1994 and january 14th 2008. Greenland pond $42000000,Silver sands bath $895000 Edutech $100000000=condominum at the bottom of Rendezvous Hill GEM opf Barbados un accounted millions. AND THE LIST CAN GO ON, yes we need Glendiary Prison reopening but the problem for you Dark Knight RAWLE EASTMOND would be the leader of the BLP.

@ RPO,

You say:

the most corrupt goverment this country have ever seen was between 1994 and january 14th 2008
……………………………

Not according to Transparency Internation or the OECD.

You have the temerity to be telling somebody nonsense about corruption and hartley henry is the special advisor to the Prime Minister!!

The problem today is that after two years in office, the DLP has suddenly realise that it cannot bluff anymore. It has to produce – an impossible task.

To the best of my knowledge, withholding evidence in Barbados is a criminal offense.

How come the DLP is not sharing its allegations with the Police or the DPP.

You idiot!!!

Wait for the Auditor General’s Report.

David

You have the power!

Just delete those posts from Dark Knight which are not on topic and skewing the discussion.

Did you hear wickham this morning?

He was almost choking with rage against the church. CBC has to be careful about the hatred he is whipping up against the church and christians.

Every day he is on, he and that crazy muslim fellow spread lies,and anti church propoganda with the open support of CBC.

Wickham hates any one who is articulate criticising him,so he was very insulting to Margaret Gill the Poet and a christian caller.

Shame on Wickham,and shame on CBC.

“The truths of religion are exalted, but its duties are close at hand.

We know Gods less by contemplation than by emulation.

The choice is not between ‘faith’ and ‘deeds’, for it is by our deeds that we express our faith and make it real in the life of others and the world.” – Jonathan Sacks.

Why would Fr. Marcus be concerned about leadership in the Church?

Does Pastor Holford, Lucille Baird, the Rev. at Christ Church and the others still feel that the DLP was slected from on high.

This question is important, especially given the thousands who have lost their jobs and cannot buy food because of the high cost of living.

What programme/s does the Church have to meet the survival needs of Barbadians on earth, especially given that life expectancy for men is 72 years and women some 78 years.

@ David
I am on side as far as Christian values are concerned but we have to accept that everyone does not believe in Christianity. We must “engage” them as well, it is incumbent on us to appeal to them on a different level to achieve the same result.

It is not necessary for the majority to be wayward to impact on society only a few are needed for such an outcome.

At the risk of offending a few, “some” parents are to blame, they often fail to instil values by “example,” they desire to be mates with their children as opposed to being loving parents, thus real parenting takes a back seat…very sad but true.

In light of the economic mess, will there be a social consultation, especially before the Budget?

What plans does the Church have to render to the earthly needs of the thousands who have lost their jobs and the thousands more who are on various lists to be sent home?

I ask this because they too are to blame for the meltdown of the economy.

Like the watchman who guardeth the City but fell asleep, the blood is on their hands!

While Clico does, what does Macro Economic Indicators have to do with regulation.

Do you mean regulation or dangerous mismanagement.

Do you see any similarities between (Goerge Orwell’s: Animal Farm)which depicts the Communist Revolution of 1917 and the role the Church allowed itself to play in the last election and after?

Still, I welcome you attempt to assist in raising the standard of debate.

It is becoming more difficult to raise a child in this modern day society. Our brightest brains are subjected to anti-Christian lectures at the UWI. In a once Christian society, the young people are now confused because their lecturers are telling them one thing and their parents, those who still believe in God, is telling them something else. That is one of the reasons why a lot of young people are so wayward. I call on Government to get back to basics and re-establish this country to Christian values and morals. I also call on the Church to speak out and play their part but first they have to clean up their act.

Nothing is wrong with having a different point of view or disagreement with the church,but what peter wickham is doing is directly and sytematically targetting the church and bit by bit seeking to poisoin the young minds in society about christianity and christian standards so that young people could accept a very liberal lifestyle.

Have you noticed that he never challenges the muslim religion which also condemns homosexuality, and is even harsher in the restriction of human rights and freedom.

Now why is this so?

Every thing in our society that is wholesome and good and moral,degenerates like peter wickham seek to pull down and destroy,yet they have no wholesome alternative to replace it with.

Because the airwave is such a powerful tool,the government and CBC need to be more responsible in who they allow behind their microphone.

If people like wickham could get this society to descend into a pit of loose morals with no standards,then homosexuality and same sex marriage will be accepted as a norm.

Yes disagree if you wish,but do not use the airwaves to destroy our christian values,tradition and heritage.

whats this all about
TALK to me Somebody

This Blog is losing it

Somebody has to stop Peter Wickham in his tracks. Between peter Wickham and these non-nationals invading this country our entire culture will be changed un-recognisable.

The problem is that the “mainstream” church has sold out to the highest bidder as well.

Don’t look to the Church — they are not God. Look to the hills from whence cometh your help.

Barbados needs to repent:

If my people who are called by my name, would turn from their wicked ways and call upon Me, I would heal their land”.

And for what it’s worth ……….. my ten cents:

BajanGal is quite correct; the Church is a “paper tiger”, the few in there who have any morals left are “muzzled” by those who waitin’ on the Sunday collection (tithe). They can’t say anything to upset those who payin’ them. Hence the “sweetbread” talk from the altars. It sweet like honey. You would never hear one of them chastise one of you all for ever doing anything that the Bible says is wrong OTHER THAN not paying your tithe.

Whether it is Thompie or Pompi or Johnny, who pays the piper calls the tune. Even the “dumb” old people that didn’t finish elementary school knew that.

The whole de-Christianization of every Christian society in this world has been authored and is supported by the UN and their entourage.

In Point:

The previous Government did everything in its power to bring “Education in Human Values”, proferred by the MOE’s technocrats and paid for by the UN through grants and loans for “Edutech” and the like, which has never been completed, to become the curriculum of choice in Public and Private Schools.

The pre-rigor mortis “Church” made some “noise” and managed to get the actual name “Education in Human Values” and their “White Paper” out of circulation but the anti-Christian MO has become more stealthy.

The teachers are indoctrinated first at the various establishments and “brain-washed” in the values of the UN and then sent into the schools as “Change Agents”. But change to WHAT?

Provocateurs like Messrs. Wickham and Co. who seek to get you hot under the collar and get vexed and generally distract you from what is really going on while they insidiously through every avenue possible, creep into your homes and your familes and devalue them.

If the people want change they going to have to start in their own houses. Each man in his own house.

I remember that Human values thing which was being pushed by a hindu indian man – Prakash Vaswani – aided and abeted by the then Minister of Education – Guess who that was?

You got it – Mia Amor Mottley – the Great Corrupter of Moral Values.

Bite muh and Boo.

This BLP government single handedly destroyed what little innocence and integrity which was left in this country.

Mia pushed the legalisation of homosexuality while owen said nothing,owen pushed for our limited land supply be sold to the highest bidder – while Mia said nothing.

Billie pushed for the muslims to violate our school uniform by wearing of pants and dress – while the rasta children got hell for wearing their locks and eventually had to cover it up with a Tam.

School was sut down while Mia called in Edwin Yearwood to sing calypso to the children.

Billie decided boys were getting ahead too well at school,so she mash up the whole damn thing by throwing in girls in the mix.

DALE MARSHAL,GEORGE PAYNE,OWEN ,LIZ, MIA,Billie,Wood,Rommell,Glyne Clarke ……………….. destroyed what little faith we had left in politicians with the outsized corruption,stealing,bribery,you name it.

Loyalty lost its virginity at the bedroom room door of the Politics of Inclusion;

Values went out the window,Money and Sex became their gods,as guyanese whores offer up their body to who so ever will give them a paspport and a job.

Bajans looked at that and decided well – ‘DO FUH DO – AIN’T NO OBEAH AND;

Wax palax – before you knew it the society at the bottom of the hill about to go over.

Whloss,look wuh owen gone an do nuh?

And The Church Slept!

The Church was not sleeping nor is it now. It is in the state of “rigor-mortis”. In other words if you don’t bury it soon it gine stink.

Ignore that nut case straight talk.

Pure rubbish from that indian man.

If you follow his arguments – you must not talk about the racist indian,don’t talk about homosexuals,don’t talk about christian religion.

Huh?

@ Anonymous // April 20, 2009 at 8:47 pm :

You seem to have information that the rest of us have not received.

A previous contributor said that not only the other ministers of the Church but specifically the lady you have mentioned and 2 other ministers of the “Church” had endorsed Mr. Thompson prior to the election as being a “divine intervention” and have since then relegated their job and position rather than criticize the “divine intervention”.

The Word says: and there are gods many — I wonder which one was intervening and who are his ministers?

@ Deng Xiaping // April 20, 2009 at 9:32 pm

Since you seem to be familiar with what Barbados was and is, are you familiar with the term a yard-fowl??

If in case you are not, to translate into more common English — a “mouth piece” one who spouts another ones doctrines and I know exactly where you could go and find the text you just wrote, transcribed.

If it were not for the struggles of your grandparents, I don’t think you would be around to tell us what would be better left ignored.

Since when, except in this “Enlightened Generation” has the wisdom of experience been so disparaged? Even low animals have to teach their young and why should human off-spring be any different?

In the West Indies Calypsonians are known to be social and political commentators and a verse comes to mind from a Trinidadian; he was singing about the time around the era 1970 when Trinidad was in so much turmoil and he described what you are professing “People who Brighten your Head and Lighten your Bread”.

To be more specific the old time Barbados that you disparage so, many who visited this island and promoted it, spoke of how naturally friendly and courteous Bajans were to each other and the tourists. Where at Cave Hill or any other cave can you find that?

Teachers, civil servants, police, firemen, nurses, doctors, lawyers came out of the “under privileged” “poverty stricken” state of demise that you so pompously declare existed.

Barbados’ super rich used to make sport at the people in the “mother country”. When Barbados had hard times the world had hard times too. Barbados was not lacking. A previous premier world renowned and recognized politician and lawyer stated: When Barbados was coming to its independence that prior to that time Barbados was exporting meat, sugar and other goods to the “mother country” not to mention all them children that went out there to build it up and to teach and to work in every kind of occupation available to man.

Oh, Barbados was so poor and backward that the likes of you all want to come and change it for the worse and climb on the backs of poor people and tell them that you are going to liberate them. Yes you will liberate them of their money and their self respect.

PS: Who ever bought a new computer and it program itself?

Deng Xiaping // April 20, 2009 at 10:08 pm

The only psychiatric condition I’m suffering from is that I have called you to board on the facts and kicked the insides out of your disingenuous arguments.

It is further inflamed by a genuine love of the people of my country of birth and their heritage. Which I will not deny and who I will call to board also when they are disloyal to that heritage.

I am very stupid but not so dumb as to buy a pig in a poke. I want to see or hear in which country in this whole universe does this UN proferred agenda for a better world not promote patricide, genocide and children murdering other children. Further, the level of rebellion against the legally appointed authorities, the level of petty crime and outlandish behaviour that is fostered and then penalized by the barrel of a gun.

A better world?????

Deng Xiaping:

One of the beautiful things that I saw operating in Barbados was the facility of past PM’s — the two particular gentlemen that followed one another to sit with and discuss as though they were with their peers matters that concerned their gardeners and their maids and other people of low er office.

Barbados is not about who is important, Barbados used to be about Barbadians. Among us we do have exalted people who can stand on any world platform and give a fair account of themselves but they don’t forget their lowly cousins at home and they had no grievance to sit down and eat ice cream and sweet bread at the lowest, most humble person’s table and they did not despise that.

We are Barbadians from all walks of life and we hope and work that our offspring will do greater and mightier works than we but we are not going to fill their heads with a lot of “hot air” that they should forget their humble beginnings and the morals and the courage and the blood that was shed to get them where they now are.

“Behaving like they mek themselves”.

Barbados has a place for every dissident, every colour of opinion and it has not destroyed the fabric of our country yet because we have not forgotten the lessons of our forefathers. We do not esteem ourselves to be so “smart”. There is lots of wisdom in the sayings of the common people, they survived the poverty they know how to live on little.

Nor do we portray ourselves to be what we are not.

Is it by chance that you are using a nom de plume that is an homonym of a most exalted member of the Chinese Communist Party? Or are you just making sport at the person who this name belongs to?

Since you esteem this gentleman to such an extent that you choose to use a homonym of his name how do you concscience Tiananmen Square? By what wisdom do you come to a country that has had more than 350 years of parliamentary government that continues to expand the entitlement of the population. When the Communist Party is the sole party in China? No dissent allowed. What about the public order rules nowadays that restrict a woman to having one child in her entire life time because the leadership states the population is too big.

Finally, what was the communist party under Mao and Lin Bao’s doctrine regarding homosexuality, adultery, prostitution and the behaviour of youth and how they were to be respectful? Not at all acceptable before the fellows in Geneva!

The next time you take up a label check it out first your moniker is not a no-name brand.

It is really sickening how BABFP thinks it funny to post crap with different names like deng xiaping,whiteman etc.

Grow up man,or leave blogging for adults.
