and were made to be broken by those who know far better than we do. The Justice department’s argument is that public interest in the matter does not outweigh the opposing public interest, is that true???
An article appeared in ‘The Daily Telegraph’, as recently as 2010, saying that the controversy was far from over, that the case was certainly not open and shut and if he were to take their advice, which of course he won’t, they suggest he not try to brazen it out, the public will not be open to it and they wouldn’t take the risk.
He won’t listen to anyone, he never does. He will attempt to fly in the face of public opinion and the law. Their moral behaviour should be enough for the crown to elude them, but if the public no longer has a taste for morality, hopefully, they will demand to see a law that has been kept from them because its not in their best interest. Hhmmmmm.
Morality is not the hip happening word that it once was, and let’s face it in the 21 st Century people would much more prefer to be called ‘cool’, ‘hip’, ‘sexy’, ‘fierce’ than be called moral.
We chip, chip, chip away at moral standards and eventually what are we left with??
Someone with the moral standards of a worm, whose only interest is, self, me and how does it help me?
Monarchy should always have been a leading light of morality. A leader, although not spiritual, but living a life style one can look at as an example. Historically, Monarchy has sadly fallen short and led the way by murdering, bullying, intimidating and whoring its way through the centuries.
There have been a few good examples of humanitarianism and altruism but these have been few and far between, and Royalty has been better known for tyranny and violence.
But in this celebrity obsessed, media driven world, this may be a great opportunity for Monarchy to step up to the plate and show a media hungry public that they are living in a modern world with a moral code.
All the spin and public manipulation in the world could never save Chuckie and Millie from an informed public, but the forthcoming nuptials on April 29 th , 2011, and its participants look extremely promising. Fingers crossed!
A Case for Continuing...
Throughout this book, we have looked at the many reasons why Monarchy made us miserable, why so many rulers were just ‘rotten’, and why selfish, hedonistic greedy behavior on the part of some Monarchs almost destroyed the Monarchy completely.
But there are reasons why the British Monarchy managed to survive when so many others have perished along the centuries. If you think it ‘just happened’ then you would be wrong.
Ever since the time of King John, the GBP or the peasants as they were known at the time, with the help of the Barons and the landed gentry asserted their will and forced this particular Tyrant to sign a document, called the Magna Carta. This charter created a law which was ABOVE the King. This document is the most important historical document in the history of democracy and became the foundation of the American Bill Of Rights. It talks about the individual’s right to pursue ‘Life, Liberty and Property’.
King John signed the charter is 1215 and then reneged on it. He was a real creep. It was ratified and finally signed in 1257 by Edward 1 st .
So since the 13 th Century, the GBP has asserted its will on the Monarchy.
And in many ways the British Monarchy has responded. Without the King, the King James 1 st Bible would never have been written. It took almost a century to write, was one of the first books to be printed, and is now believed to be the archetype publication of the Anglican Church. It was a bible written in English and not Latin and it became accessible to the masses, read from pulpits by clergymen to people who were unable to read. It is still in print today and available on line. Would this book have been written
