Put a man who murders and divorces his wives in charge of the Church, and eventually it comes down to this.

Constantine the Great?

Well said.

Charles is the answer to an expert-level trivia question.

If they’re going to do monarchy, they should do it right and go with the Jacobite line!

[Cicero]

FWIW, Constantine may have thought he was in charge of the Church, but he wasn’t. The Emperors, and later the Holy Roman Emperors, fought it out with the Popes for centuries as to who was in charge of the Church. The Emperors lost.

Regretably, however, Henry VIII won.

[Pilsner]

Establishing a Republic, and disestablishing the Church of England is my proposed solution to this issue.

The Prince of Wales is said to have raised his fears of "unintended consequences"

Gee I never would have thought that Prince Charles and I worry about the same thing.
