Isn’t this guy head of the Church of England. Didn’t he invite Muslims into Windsor to celebrate the end of Ramadan.

I guess I don’t understand his whole “Defender of the Faith” oath.

King Charles extends Ramadan greetings to Muslims around the world

The Royal Family is extending the greetings of Ramadan to all the Muslims celebrating.King Charles and Queen Camilla turned to their official Instagram page on Tuesday to extend blessings of the...

Allow me to assist you in understanding his role in these matters.

Firstly, he does not take an oath to be "Defender of the Faith" it is a title that devolves on him when he becomes king. He does take an oath to protect protestantism. The story of how the British crown got that title is quite funny actually. It was awarded by the Pope to King Henry VIII for writing a defense of the 7 sacraments against Luther's thoughts. It was probably not written by Henry but I digress. Then Henry, of course, broke away from the R.C. church and started his own version so he could get some more divorces. The British parliament extended the title back to him when the Pope took it away.

He is the governor of the Church of England, but not its spiritual head, that is the Archbishop of Cantebury.

As King of England he has millions of muslim subjects who he must protect and foster just like all of his Christian subjects. There is nothing wrong with him wishing them peace. He is the King of all British subjects, not just the Christian ones. It would be wrong from him to simply ignore civility and gracious treatment to his non-Anglican subjects.

The Easter Address thing is probably just mentioned to gin up uninformed foreigners and uneducated Brits who see scary bearded men under their bed every night. An Easter Address or message is not done on a regular basis by the British Crown, never has been. QEII, who was a great monarch, only did a small number of them for special reasons in her 70 year reign. But King Charles personally is a deeply religious man and has already attended the Royal Maundry service. He is also scheduled to attend services Easter Sunday.

Ag input companies make more money off an organic acre than a conventional acre over the long haul. That should tell you something about the volume of conventional chemicals used to prep an acre for organic production, and the cost of organic controls chemicals, which have a much lower regulatory threshold. Acres have to be cycled in and out of organic production because, although we have developed some effective organic insecticides, no one has developed the holy grail, an organic herbicide.

As you allude to above, the other dirty fact is that likely one quarter to one third of the earth’s population would not be able to be fed without the Haber Bosch process, but don’t bother the activists with inconvenient facts!

Well said, the smart producers approach field prep and rotation based on soil tests and get maximum production by mitigating limiting factors.

The flip side of the coin are people who have been throwing out 200lbs of 20-20-20 per acre for the last 30 years because that’s what grandpa did; then complain about fertilizer prices.

On the new age organics side of idiocy, I advised a man to place 2,000lbs of chicken litter per acre on his land, he instead placed 8,000lbs per acre at a cost of $300acre.

His most recent tests show he now has 400% excess phosphorus……

Oof, he has a serious runoff problem if there are waterways nearby. On an interesting side note, I am helping in the development of a chicken litter granulation process that shows great potential. Hopefully construction of the first plant will begin this year.

Why should he when they aren't " civil and gracious " but are intent on taking over and inflicting their beliefs on the people...which they are already doing...and i include Jews..Hindus etc etc etc...not just Christians.I know what needs doing......but as I am not in charge it's pretty much too late....
Part of his title is defender of the faith...which isn't any other religion...he is also supreme governor of the Church of England...and he appoints archbishops etc

Just in case you see this and more from Glenn Diesen.. I am not familiar with the american being interviewed, but Diesen (a norwegian) is 100% a russian bot. He has met Putin regularily and is nothing but a propagandist for the Putin regime and his Eurasian dream..

He is also fronting the most radical communist party in Norway..

In his defense, the vast majority of royal power is symbolic. He appoints a lot of people to positions of power but nearly all of them are preselected but the government.

Sadly, the primary job of the British monarch these days is to not do anything to piss off the government to the point that they force through a referendum on abolishing the monarchy.

It’s a funny thing. I like the idea of the constitutional monarchy but at a certain point the institution becomes so ineffectual that one has to ask what the point is? Neither the monarchy or House of Lords seem able to offer any meaningful check or balance to house of commons these days.

I know that...but he is a sad comparison to his mother..he hasn't a clue...she knew how to negotiate the political shit and give her advice opinion during her regular meetings with the PM....but I doubt he has a clue and with the useless fkn muppets that have been PMs for a while, especially the specimen in office now ..it really doesn't make any difference as all useless...as i said he is in the WEF pocket.....and I was born in England...and as I have said here a few times..am embarrassed to say it due to the fkup the UK is now...oh and where I grew up and spent most of my life after my father left the UK mainland , due to labour government nearly 100% taxes at the time is a crown dependency ...so he is our head of state....unfortunately..his mother great ..him nope

It is sad that this should be the dumbed down version that is shown to the Loony Left to make them understand.

I tried to find this but was unsuccessful. Anyone remember a Saturday Night Live skit (from back when it was funny a long time ago) lampooning the then Prince Charles and his relationship with Camilla? The gist of the skit was he was going to be shrunk and attached to a tampon so he could always be near her.

I guess reading the words, that sounds bizarre... but my memory is it was funny.

If it’s the third time it’s happened it is.

 

[Altitude sickness]

Our CSAR guys sure earn their money flying into the same area that a fighter jet was just shot down. Then landing and grabbing downed pilots. The Helicopters they use are high tech with extra horsepower to carry their huge balls.

We also lost a A-10 Warthog in the Straits area today . The pilot was quickly picked up.

Prayers for the missing pilot and families waiting for word.

Iran claims they have downed an A10 warthog, pilot rescued…..

 

[Brent in Az]

Iran offering a reward to capture the pilot

 

[Brent in Az]

What are they downing these planes with?
SAM'S, Drones, anti aircraft fire?

 

[John Wasmuth]

Nobody’s saying how they got removed from the sky yet but offering theories on stingers or anti aircraft guns….. I’d put money on Sam’s
