thank you, i was wondering which sharp eye would spot that particular spot. They would have a rough time with this. it's so ambiguous...... the law makers were very smart back in the day. now the burden of proof would lay on the homosexuals to prove that it is not in the publics interest to stop homosexuals from getting married....... good luck there... this aint the states......if ya'll want ter see bay street jam up with all kinds of picketing folks then go ahead.
i'm just saying........
MAN YA'LL I GONE ONE MINUTE AND YINNA ALREADY HAVE 44 PGS OF THIS HERE? HOW DA HELL I SUPPOSE TER CATCH UP?
FYI there is no burden of proof needed the marriage act clearly states persons can be married. Nothing defines persons as 1 man and 1 woman. There is only an unwritten policy that stands in the way.

What confuses me is that law or no law why are these peole fighting so hard to participate in something that is a christian ceremony binding the union of 1 woman and 1 man? It's like being a jew and fighting for the right to participate in a muslum ceremony.
Because marriage is not just a christian ceromony Jews Muslims Hindu native American et all marry.

Glad that you are up, so that you may have a read:

California will soon correct this insult to the wishes of the majority of families, caused by the obstruction of activist judges in their ruling to allow homosexual marriages, when they unanimously vote "YES" to Proposition 8 on November 04, 2008.

Perhaps its time for Bahamians to stand and prevent what remains of your group from causing any further deterioration to our already damaged moral fabric.

This press release issued yesterday explains further why marriages between Hindus, Jews, Christians, Native Americans, et al, will soon be restricted to 1 male and 1 female of any religious group in the state of California:

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

CALIFORNIANS RALLY TO DEFEND MARRIAGE:

Churches across State Host Simulcast Event to Arm Congregants
with ‘ABCs of Protecting Marriage’ to Share with CA Voters
LA MESA, Calif., Oct. 22, 2008 – An army of voters committed to defining marriage as between one man and one woman in the state of California was trained Sunday evening in the “ABCs of Protecting Marriage,” originating from Skyline Church near San Diego.

Hosted by Skyline pastor Jim Garlow, the ninety-minute rally was simulcast to nearly 200 more churches around the state, teaching those in attendance how to argue in defense of marriage as they interact with friends and family leading up to the Nov. 4 vote on Proposition 8.

“We are in a race to the finish line, and it is way too close to call,” Garlow said. “We need to be out there educating everyone we come into contact with about what’s at stake if same-sex marriage is allowed to stand in California.”

Garlow ran through the alphabet, letters A through J, using memory tools to aid the audience members in recalling important points about the arguments to support traditional marriage. “A is for Activist judges, who overturned the will of the people after 61 percent voted for traditional marriage in 2000,” he said. “It’s time to restore to the people that which was taken from them.”

A variety of special guests were invited to speak in support of the arguments, with Mat Staver of the Liberty Counsel featured in this first category. Staver served as the attorney who pled before the State Supreme Court that a majority of Californians did not support same-sex marriage.
Other guests included David and Tonia Parker from Massachusetts, who spoke about “C is for Children.” David was jailed for asking his kindergartner’s school to notify him when they would be teaching about homosexual marriage, so that he could remove his son from the classroom, rather than have him taught that same-sex marriage was equal to traditional marriage.

Speaking about “F is for Freedoms,” several other guests represented personal and religious freedoms that had been attacked since the advent of same-sex marriage: Pastor Ake Green from Sweden, who was sentenced to prison for preaching from the book of Romans about homosexuality; Bob Tyler, the attorney representing physicians from San Diego’s North County Women’s Medical Care Group who were convicted in a discriminatory lawsuit for refusing to inseminate a lesbian couple; Chuck Limandri, the attorney for California firefighters forced to march in a homosexual pride parade against their will; and photographers Jonathan and Elaine Huguenin of New Mexico, who were fined and are still in litigation for refusing to photograph a same-sex “commitment ceremony.”

“If same-sex marriage is allowed to stand in California, we will see these and many other instances where our personal and religious freedoms will come under attack,” Garlow said.

Under “H is for Homosexual Lifestyle Choices,” it was underscored that such a lifestyle is a choice and is something that a person can change. This argument calls into question those who would equate homosexuality with skin color and plead discrimination. One of the comments that got the most appreciation from the crowd was Pastor Shawn Mitchell of New Venture Christian Fellowship in Oceanside who, in speaking of former homosexuals in his church, said, “I don’t have any ex-black persons in my church.”

Love your sense of humor. However, I'm sure that you must now be aware that the proponents of homosexual marriage ain't jokin'. No siree bob, they are as serious as death and all headed to an early grave, according to the Word of God.

sorry hun you will find thats is just the case.....if this was a criminal matter then the burden of proof would be on the prosecutor but since this is not a criminal matter, it is up to you and your lawyers to convince the court that the law is not being applied as it should. Now this application is based on the interpretation of the law. In such a case the judge or whomever will have to interpret the law as a normal layman would......and this is where that part about public interest would come in......if the public or a regular joe see's that marriage is between man and woman then too bad too sad........thats why that particular phrase was put in there......it's very hard to by pass that.......public interest:hammer:

is it in the public's interest to have:

large percentages of marriages that end in divorce
marriages that spiral into domestic/child abuse
false (pretend) marriages that occur all to often in the Bahamas


who decide's what's in the "public interest"... where does it start and where does it end?...
