I don’t care about the royals. Don’t understand the fascination with royals. I do know many people long for royalty, and that’s one reason we have king Obama.

I just dropped by to say, Charles is an example of what happens when your bloodline has significant inbreeding.

He's right to be worried. Play around with the rules of succession and this could happen:

I enjoy reading about English history, including its monarchy, and my heritage is English. Personally I don’t see why they had to change the law of succession from first born male to first born of either gender. That’s just messing with a thousand years of history in the interest of political correctness.

Kind of ironic, since Charles doesn’t seem too concerned about ‘unintended consequences’ of much of the stupidity regarding global warming/global climate change.

Of course, the royal succession is a more personal for him, so he advocates caution.

They’ve pretty much backed themselves into a corner. I have considerable sympathy for the British royal tradition. But when Henry VIII declared that the King was the head of the Church, he set up a troubling paradox that is now coming to an unavoidable head.

The monarch today is a figurehead. Important still, as the symbol who ties the British empire or commonwealth together. But the Queen does whatever the Prime Minister says. So, the PM chooses who will be Archbishop of Canterbury. That’s how they got those gay, heretic losers into the office of Archbishop. Because that’s what Blair and his pale “conservative” imitation wanted.

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

Charles reportedly raised the issue of what would happen if his grandchild's future spouse were Catholic and insisted any children be raised as Catholics. This would either bar their child from the throne or compromise the monarch's role as supreme governor of the Church of England.

What does this moron care? I stopped caring whether he lives or dies when he said he would not be "Defender of the Faith" but rather "Defender of Faiths."

Prince Claims to be Defender of All Faiths, Not "The" Faith

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!

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