Yeah, I am so fed up with that asshole Djangovic. Let's switch to something more important:
The Duchess of Cambridge has outed three new photos of herself for the occasion of her 40th birthday. https://youtu.be/gOqRQD_gLrw But who do you think would make a better Queen of England: the Duchess of Cambridge or Camilla?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
I think those portraits are unattractive. The Duchess is a pretty lady but somehow they managed to miss that in the pictures.
What fresh hell can this be? - Dorothy Parker

England without a Queen would be like a fish without a bicycle. Charles, on the other hand, has done an outstanding job in the only real occupation allowed to him: waiting for his mum to die. Boru

Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups Arguing with an engineer is like wrestling with a pig in mud ..... after a while you realise that the pig likes it!

I think it is important that the head of state is not the same as the head of government. I also believe that some sort of reverence for the office of a non-political head-of-state is required to safeguard a democracy. The Crown is useful as long as it does its constitutional job, and enjoys some popularity. That way, if some dictator comes to power, the Crown will have the backing of the people to dissolve parliament. There are other ways to get a head-of-state. They can be elected or appointed, but that doesn't give the same level of political independence or popular mythology that may be required in a crisis.
