“” “” 19th Century brits like William Wilberforce, John Wesley, gigantic men of God who spurred on the abolition of slavery even before the U.S. or Russia with the tsar’s pseudo-emancipation.”” “”
Who cares about 19th century? Shouldn’t they kill themselves over guilt about things took place in 18th century?
What about 17th century and there were a lot to be ashamed of before that.
“” “” And clearly Britain is closer to being at peace with its imperial past: sores and all. The Queen is quite beloved all over the Commonwealth and former colonial holdings — and Africans are the most devout and conservative figures in the Church of England.”” “”
How is it possible? “imperial past” and “being at peace” just doesn’t belong in one sentence /s
Also these poor delusional “imperial holdings”, who still has a Queen. It must be a shame Russia doesn’t have Stalin anymore of it would be a little more like Britain /s Although he is still beloved in Georgia which counts as “former imperial holding”
“” “” And Prince Harry is about to marry a beautiful 1/2 African-American woman, whose mother descends from slaves in the U.S. and whose father’s white great-great grandmother was a maid at Windsor Castle.”” “”
Of, yeah. That’s so royal of him.
Say what you want but the world will be watching centuries old tradition in beautiful St. George’s cathedral at Windsor Castle. The Royal Wedding attests to the strength of British institutions and Western Civilization’s continued relevance as the frame of reference for the world as a whole. They have been on the right side of history and they will bask.
And don’t diss Prince Harry. He’s a true soldier. A 10-year army veteran whose served on the front lines fighting terrorists.
