Monarch and supreme governor of Church of England to remain Defender of the Faith, but will speak about his commitment to multiple religions.
The King is expected to recognise that he serves all religious faiths and not just the Church of England when he speaks during his coronation.
The coronation oath, in which he will pledge to be “Defender of the Faith”, will not change.
However, palace aides and church officials are planning to add a form of words that will allow the King to recognise his commitment to the multiple faiths of a diverse Britain.
While the specific details remain under discussion, it is thought that the additional wording would be included either before or after the oath.
The King has long worked to promote interfaith dialogue.
In September, just days after he became monarch, he vowed to “protect the space for faith itself”, promising religious leaders during a Buckingham Palace reception that he would uphold the numerous “religions, cultures, traditions and beliefs to which our hearts and minds direct us”.
It had previously been reported that the King was considering altering the oath to make himself “Defender of Faith” or “Defender of the Faiths”, in recognition of his personal commitment to Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Sikhism and other religions.
However, such a move would require a change in the law, for which there is not enough time ahead of the May 6 coronation.

I wonder how old Charles was when Elizabeth realized he would never amount to anything.
Evil scum.
You cannot defend the Christian faith by equalizing various sects with it.
Twenty-five maybe even fifteen.

King Charles needs to carefully read the fable about the scorpion and the frog..

Side note to Charlie: You are the frog in the fable, pal.
Monty Python came and left us 30 years too soon. Charles is so their Twit.
Well...beheadings could come back into vogue.
Camilla’s Peg-boy. Always has beeeen.
The West is no longer Christian. At least Muslim nations haven’t gone GloboHomo.
Will he mention Catholicism by name, seeing that there are still some restrictions on the books for Catholics (Act of Settlement)?
There is always a Remnant.
To prove his point, he should have a image of Muhammad displayed at his coronation.
Sad but true.
Including Satanists?
I mean, we don’t want them to get upset.
I don’t think Charles the churlish is very religious at all. Nothing like his predecessor.
