Jamaica Gleaner Commentary
published: Monday | December 22, 2003

Hope for MoBay homeless
THE 1999 dragooning of 32 street people from Sam Sharpe Square in Montego Bay is still remembered as one of the most shameful episodes in that city's recent history.

Christmas: who will help the poor?
JESUS, AS a baby, was homeless. There was no room at the inn. He was born in a stable, way out in the fields, among donkeys and cows, sheep and goats. He had no clothes but was swaddled in pieces of makeshift clothing. - Richard Ho Lung


Are we a Christian nation?
AS OUR country celebrates Christmas, we should remember that this time of year provides a wonderful opportunity for spiritual reflection. I was once told that Jamaica has more houses of worship per square mile than anywhere else on Earth. - Garth Rattray
