The Coronation of King Charles III
Hoagy62

Posted on 05/05/2023 11:21:36 PM PDT by hoagy62

Is anyone gonna watch? This is something that you may only get to see one time in your life.

Most networks are going to start the telecast at about 5am Eastern time. PBS will start much earlier, simulcasting the BBC.

I saw bits and pieces earlier. Who was the chick in blue handing the sword to Charles?

Penny Mordaunt, she’s an MP and holds the ceremonial position of Lord President of the Council, which means she’s in charge of running the Privy Council, which are the King’s advisors, made up mostly of senior politicians who are or have been Cabinet Ministers. As such, she has some ceremonial roles as well.

Thank you for your attention to detail.

More from the stockpile:

Liber Abaci (also spelled as Liber Abbaci;[1] "The Book of Calculation") is a historic 1202 Latin manuscript on arithmetic by Leonardo of Pisa, posthumously known as Fibonacci.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liber_Abaci

1202 = "a branch from his roots" (Isa 11.1)

I never know when this stuff might come in handy. 😃

I watched briefly out of curiosity.

A stunning display of mass delusion.

Somehow the British are able to shake off Charles’ demonstrated history of depravity and exhalt him somehow as a God-given gift to lord over them.

It reminds me of the greatness and wisdom of the American founders that we soundly rejected this notion. It gives me optimism that the British people can once again contribute greatly to the world if only one of them would run him through “ sic semper tyrannus” style and show the people that a heartless bureaucracy crowned by a buggering fool is no substitute for freedom.

Typo!

Should have been and "a branch from his roots"

Slipped up on the copy/paste.

Now listening to all those bells ringing. Wow.

Today's "Andy Capp" at https://www.gocomics.com/andycapp/2023/05/06 refers to the coronation.

Poor Andybbtw. His beloved Pools (Hartlepool United FC) is playing its last game in the Football League today before dropping to the fifth tier of English soccer, having "clinched" relegation last week.

If I remember correctly Diana was about 19 years old when she was chosen to be the correct person for Charles. Hardly old enough to have “skeletons” and “issues”. The issue was always Camilla who continued the affair with Charles after his marriage to DIana. That destroyed the marriage.

Diana was certainly not the first to have affairs. The monarchy treated her terribly; they wanted her to disappear into the woodwork, and the public was enraged by them. So she had to disappear with help. Camilla has no right to be queen but rules were changed so there she sits. Neither she nor Charles have any shame.

“I’m old enough to have seen Elizabeth II’s coronation (on a black & white TV with a round screen).”

Yeah. Our grandmother herded my sisters & me for the “once in a lifetime” gig - so the 3 of us sat on the floor in front of her B&W TV and watched the whole thing.

No interest in doing it again as you pointed out. No need to be able to say I did it twice.

I watched a little of it, and it was very lovely. What is amazing is the history behind it. Praying that Charles and Camilla will give their hearts to Christ, abandon the environment nonsense and be of true service to God’s glory. It made me think of the day we are before the throne of the King of Kings.

Oh, and the lady with the feather in her hat, blocking Prince Harry, lol! That was no coincidence! Love it!

Lol!

I’m sorry, but there is nothing good about that retard. Climate change is his issue. Eyes are too close together. A lot of inbreeding.

Your willingness to worship these people actually disgusts me.
