    @Pipo the Bishop cannot strengthen you in as much as he cannot give you faith; this is between you and the Almighty God. He never called you to believe in the bishop. Your Salvation can only come by your faith in His Son and His Grace of Love. It is your choice to go into a faithful and sincere spiritual relationship with Him.

      Elizabeth, your lack of understanding to conceptualise the bigger picture amazes me and the public Everytime you pen the opposite to the message that is brought before you and us the public avid readers of DNO. You lack that skill analysing and understanding the bigger picture of what people pen on DNO. You personalise. You grow up please where you, I and others have the opportunity to comment and read on matters of state and other matters that affect us. You have become too falsely political and protect this failed Odd Skerrit of yours and his failed corrupted Labour government. Go about Roseau and tell us after 19Yrs why is it that our people and our Dominica are in deep poverty and jobless and have to rely on your incipient Skerrit to have this abusive Red Clinic to have our poor people as beggars come to this fraudulent Red Clinic to gain fame. This won’t work for me and my family as we have rejected failed Skerrit and his useless failed Labour Government. Skerrit Get Out. Go…

        @Viewsexpress you are describing to me, who you and your so-called public is. You don’t have the ability to discern my level of “wisdom”, so shut-up your foolish mouth.

        Below, is half of your post to mine; tell me what does it have to do with what I said to Pipo

        “You have become too falsely political and protect this failed Odd Skerrit of yours and his failed corrupted Labour government. Go about Roseau and tell us after 19Yrs why is it that our people and our Dominica are in deep poverty and jobless and have to rely on your incipient Skerrit to have this abusive Red Clinic to have our poor people as beggars come to this fraudulent Red Clinic to gain fame. This won’t work for me and my family as we have rejected failed Skerrit and his useless failed Labour Government. Skerrit Get Out. Go”

        And you say my comments have nothing to do with the news article? Man or woman, you need to get off my back. Find another …… like you to carry you around.

    This is what The Most High says about your religion.

    Jeremiah 23 1:2
    23 Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! saith the Lord.

    2 Therefore thus saith the Lord God of Israel against the pastors that feed my people; Ye have scattered my flock, and driven them away, and have not visited them: behold, I will visit upon you the evil of your doings, saith the Lord.

      Nac Vibes, the Lord is right to bestow this wrath upon you, for you thee have no knowledge and have interpreted the word of our God wrongly. Therefore we return you own false words to thyself that your deflect and reflect and read carefully before you pen the wrong messages of our God to his people that may be pointed back at you. Here Goes: “Woe be unto those that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! Says the Lord. Nac, do not have God in vain when you attempt to get at his flock, at hi people, your brothers and sisters.
      Gods Guidance!

        @viewsexpressed, as I read your comment against that of the person, Nac Vibes, I am beginning to think that you are someone with a deep mental problem. And I will always remind you of that fact each time you decide to attack my thoughts.

        All Nac Vibes did was leave a few verses from the Book of Jerimiah and her choice of scripture is in relationship to the news article. You come against him/her saying that what he/she posted is wrongly interpreted, and yet what you posted is parallel to his/hers

        Here is Nac Vibes: “Woe be unto the pastors that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture! saith the Lord”

        And you wrote against the verse above: “Woe be unto those that destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture!”

        You said the same thing as Nac Vibes, who is referring to the Bishop. What makes you right and Nac Vibes is wrong? Something is very wrong with both your mind and your brain. You need to look after yourself.

    Sorry to say Sir that since you throw your lot in with Skerrit your church has done nothing to strengthen our faith in ourselves. You have become irrelevant and a minor irritant. So sad. I don’t need your church to make my peace with God again.

      Pipo, I understand your concern, but I feel that this comment and those thoughts of yours are over exaggerated. I have been reading these statements of the Bishops’ alignment with Skerrit and I wonder how is this alignment works in practice?
      You mean that: 1. They share communion together? 2. They engage in weird political matters? 3. Is it a sin to align and have conversation with Skerrit? (well we know that Skerrit is a failure, but we need to know what are you saying specifically that the Bishop should not have an audience with Skerrit -or the other way around?). Please make statements or share your concern with us that we are able to understand the bigger picture and to comment professionally that we all move on decently as Dominicans to take control of our Dominica from incompetent immature Skerrit and his failed corrupted Labour government. Skerrit and his failed labour Team must go to confession and get hell out of our people and our government. Our Island has suffered…
