You guys are hung up on the word "worship." That's because you have become encased in democratic manners too long. The English worship many things less holy than Mary, even ordiary magistrates.

I believe the English just "venerate" them. And watch how you throw the word "democratic" around. :-)

No, the attitude of the English has traditionally been "deference" to authority. Although this is fading under the influence of and socialism, they still retain the forms. As regards "democracy," I do not "worship"it, even in the form that it appears in the United States. Let us not forget what has become of the Democratic Party in the United States, that in that party as in American elite circles it has now practically become identified with the Marxist critique of society and even the social democracy that we see everywhere enthroned in Europe.
