Hurrah For Prince George!

Yes, that's a dodge or diversion of your inconsistency.

 

I have no inconsistency. I don't have to fit everyone into my worldview. If England wants to be Anglican, then be Anglican. If I were an Anglican, I would comment on it. But I'm not, I'm Catholic, so I comment on Catholic matters.

That's just another dodge. But if you would like to pretend you are consistence where you are not about this matter, you can be in a world of pure imagination.

lol. Ok. I have no idea what you're talking about, honestly. Your projection of "consistence" apparently means I'm inconsistent with your world views, or with your assumptions about my own. But anyway, I just joined this thread for the lulz, nothing serious.

Standards that you apply to one Monarch that is also head of a Church, you do not apply to another. That's inconsistent, but I see no reason to further state that fact, since you are unable to admit it.

Well I guess you won the argument that never was. Congratulations.

I didn't win, my goal was to get you to take a similar position against the monarchy of England that you took against the Pope, or to get you to admit to your inconstancy. You didn't so we both failed lolol.

Don't worry, it's a long life, I might come to my senses some day.

 

Whose woods these are I think I know.   
His house is in the village though;   
He will not see me stopping here   
To watch his woods fill up with snow.   

 

My little horse must think it queer   
To stop without a farmhouse near   
Between the woods and frozen lake   
The darkest evening of the year.   

 

He gives his harness bells a shake   
To ask if there is some mistake.   
The only other sound’s the sweep   
Of easy wind and downy flake.   

 

The woods are lovely, dark and deep.   
But I have promises to keep,   
And miles to go before I sleep,   
And miles to go before I sleep.

Britain has done more than just Shakespeare!

Which is why I had hoped that they would name the new prince George John Paul Ringo... But alas.... they did not.

A married woman of childbearing age has given birth to a baby boy.

The event followed nine months of pregnancy.

"Both mother and baby are doing well," a spokesman for the woman said.

It is now expected that the baby will grow up.

Also found this twitter post to be amusing

 

 

 

 Peculiar that when gender equality is gaining momentum and there is no urgency to have a male heir to an obsolete throne, a male heir is born.

Yes, that's right Crosscut, they deliberately had a boy, just to thwart those pesky feminists...

Don't worry Anne, I know American knowledge of British history ends with George III ;)

 

He may actually be George VIII as I have heard in the past that the Prince of Wales may rule as George VII instead of Charles III because of the unpopularity of Charles I. I don't think that that would be necessary though as Charles II was very popular.

 

I was hoping for James (which did seem to be a popular choice in the newspapers) as James II was the last Catholic monarch we had! Still, that's one of the reasons why James wasn't chosen, as it was only this year that an Act of Parliament was passed to make it legal for the monarch to even marry a Catholic. I knew one of the royal family at university and he was removed from the line of succession when he became a Catholic with his sister.

 

(I am :paperbag: over getting the number wrong.   And me with AnneLine's name and everything :paperbag: )

 

I was also hoping for James.... today would have been his feast day!    

 

That's interesting about the royal family member who became Catholic.   I was jokingly suggesting that George might be a subtle homage to our new Pope, whose birth name was George (Jorge)....   maybe there is more here than meets the eye!   he he he

And yes, he may choose a totally DIFFERENT name if/when he becomes King... maybe... Francis?   ;)

Haha, we can only hope! Still, the current Jacobite claimant to the throne is Prince Francis of Bavaria, so I doubt he'll choose that name!

 

Sadly, there's no less Catholic and more Protestant royal British name than George - except perhaps William, whom we will have before!
