Non Christian Religions to Feature in the Coronation Ceremony [of King Charles III)
Religion Media Center ^ | 4/24/23 | Ruth Peacock

Posted on 04/26/2023 7:09:28 PM PDT by marshmallow

Kaya Burgess reports in The Times that non-Christian religions will be represented in the coronation ceremony, with four Lords presenting regalia to the King and other faith leaders forming a faith procession.

The report names the Lords as Baroness Gillian Merron, Jewish peer and former Labour MP, who will carry a robe; Lord Narendra Patel, a Hindu crossbench peer, who will carry the ring; Lord Indarjit Singh of Wimbledon, a Sikh crossbench peer, who will carry the coronation glove; and Lord Syed Kamall, a Muslim Conservative peer who will carry the armills (bracelets).

The news follows mounting speculation as to how other faiths could be included in a Christian ceremony, with widespread recognition that this was the King’s wish, as Defender of the Faith – Christianity – but with a lifelong interest in spirituality and other faiths which led him once to say (now retracted) that he would prefer to be known as Defender of Faith.

He’s already failing in his role as Defender of the Faith.

Better screen the wogs with x-rays, a metal detector, and a pat-down.

Film’s I’ve seen of Elizabeth’s coronation were pretty interesting. But this upcoming one....I think I’ll be busy that day.

There is only one faith... The one created by King Henry the VIII so he could divorce his Catholic Spanish wife. The Church of England, which is essentially Christianity without the Catholicism.

Charles is the leader of that church by his birthright and he better get used to it... He is essentially the Pope of that church.

The Church of England is floundering from the liberal reforms that they’ve enacted under the current Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby who is a complete wanker. He is supposedly considering resigning after the coronation, so hopefully the Tories can select a ‘less woke’ candidate to take over his job.

Tories are led by a Hindu pagan. If only the Brits had choosen assimilation and elimination of pagan faiths like Spain and Portugal did. Rather than segregation and allowing the pagans to thrive.

It’s like watching a groundhog with a lobotomy ascend the throne.

Both Spain and Portugal now have serious problems with modern neo-paganism, aka socialism. “Charity” with the sword instead of with the cross.

Yes... But like the sons and daughter of most immigrants situated within the UK, he’s a Conservative and a very rich one at that... He apparently has more money than the King.

The Labour party is the party of lazy white people who have become slaves to the UK’s socialist state. All they want are government handouts. Actually working for a living has become abhorrent to these lay-abouts, and the only party that will continue their assistance lifestyle is the Labour party.

As for Spain and Portugal... Check out their former colonies... Yes, they are Christian, but they are also among the laziest and most crime ridden countries in the world, and most of them are Socialist Dictatorships.

The article mentions some non-Christians taking part in the ceremony, but there’s nothing in the article that explains how this will in any way take away from the Christian nature of the coronation. Are they going to recite Jewish religious verses during the ceremony or something?

They should just rid themselves of the monarchy.

Charles is worthless as teats on a boar hog.

William appears to be woke and green.

Just put it out of its misery.

Is he going to replace Handel’s Coronation Anthem with a Hindu and a sitar?

Because nothing in the ceremony is being altered. He just has representatives of other faiths participating in a non-substantive ceremonial function.

They can both participate, and yet not change the Christian nature of the ceremony.

Hinduism aside, Rishi Sunak’s background is no different than most other Tory MP’s.

His parents paid for him to go to a 600 year old (Private) Public School instead of going to a state school.

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

He then went to Lincoln College, Oxford, Stanford University and worked his way up in business and then the ranks of Tory MPs to the Front Bench and then PM when Liz Truss’s ministry imploded.

He is frankly a poster boy for assimilation into Western Culture.

Being whitewashed doesn’t make you western. People of white western ancestry (ie Americans whose ancestors come from west of the Levant) are a minority at our “elite” universities. “Meritocracy” that certain morons worship is anti western and means that truly racially and culturally western peoples will be held under the boot of non western elites like this curry eater.

You support the genocide of western man so that he lives under the boot of money grubbing non-western minority elites. The good news is someday the Sineks and Changs who are resident the west will get the rope along with the anti-western fifth columnists who support them. But keep kissing their asses as maybe they will let you keep your job serving them as they rape and ruin our western culture.

Nope, a mixture of European races and culturally western, unlike the curry eating disloyal greedy cosmopolitans that you want ruling over us.
