UK King Charles gives out his remarks regarding Easter - While oddly praising Islam and Judaism

A message from The King to mark Easter​

Published 17 April 2025

There are three virtues that the world still needs — faith, hope and love. “And the greatest of these is love”.
One of the puzzles of our humanity is how we are capable of both great cruelty and great kindness. This paradox of human life runs through the Easter story and in the scenes that daily come before our eyes — at one moment, terrible images of human suffering and, in another, heroic acts in war-torn countries where humanitarians of every kind risk their own lives to protect the lives of others. A few weeks ago, I met many such people at a reception in Buckingham Palace and felt a profound sense of admiration for their resilience, courage and compassion.

On Maundy Thursday, Jesus knelt and washed the feet of many of those who would abandon Him. His humble action was a token of His love that knew no bounds or boundaries and is central to Christian belief.

The love He showed when he walked the Earth reflected the Jewish ethic of caring for the stranger and those in need, a deep human instinct echoed in Islam and other religious traditions, and in the hearts of all who seek the good of others.

The abiding message of Easter is that God so loved the world — the whole world — that He sent His son to live among us to show us how to love one another, and to lay down His own life for others in a love that proved stronger than death.

There are three virtues that the world still needs — faith, hope and love. “And the greatest of these is love”.

It is with these timeless truths in my mind, and my heart, that I wish you all a blessed and peaceful Easter.

I think it's the perception that things weren't as bad when she was the Monarch.

They probably were, but it wasn't as blatant as it is now.

There was, at least, the belief that things would be alright under her reign.
I suppose that makes sense, I appreciate the answers. Obviously the idea of a monarchy is somewhat alien to myself as an American, so thank you for humoring me.
 
I won't pretend to be an expert on British politics, because I am not, but I did get that much. I understand why the traitor king wouldn't do anything, and that dissolving Parliament is effectively the nuclear option. What I don't understand is why people love Elizabeth so much when she presided over the collapse and ignoble death of the British Empire, and did nothing about contemporary issues even when she was old enough that it didn't matter. It's not like her family would have ended up in the streets even if Parliament threw a tantrum and got rid of the monarchy. Maybe I am speaking out of ignorance, but I do not understand the love.

Couldn't Elizabeth have just rolled in with her guard and killed the very people you are talking about? She was the Queen, after all, and widely beloved.
When Charles I tried that it resulted in a brutal civil war which resulted with the King being beheaded and the emergence of the Commonwealth of Great Britain which was an authoritarian state.
 
Charles is a Muslim and his constantly shoehorning mudslimes into his speeches has me convinced of that.

His mum would be spinning in her grave. I hope the cancer works fast on him.

I'm beginning to think the rumours of his conversion aren't so far fetched after all.

Still, we took the head of one Charles, we can do it again.
 
I don't get why the royal family wants to include Islam in their speeches. Don't they know that muhammad was a pedophile??

Then again I bet many of them are pedophiles like Prince Andrew.
There are rumours that Lord Mountbatten sexually abused children in Ireland, and that is why the IRA did away with him.

The strangest one I've heard about is that the late Queen Elizabeth II ate some Canadian children in the 1950s on her first visit to the country.
 
Meanwhile, the US gets Marco Rubio simply saying CHRIST IS KING.

Should King Charles III, therefore demand the dissolution of Parliament tomorrow, Starmer will fire back with 'if you do that, there will be an immediate vote on the future of the Monarchy.' In other words, 'you know your place and I will know mine'.
How does that work? If the king dissolves Parliament, then Parliament ceases to exist. Any vote Starmer has will be viewed as illegal at best, an attempt to overthrow the king at worst.

The 12th Earl of Shaftesbury still OWNS Lough Neagh in Northen Ireland and it's the largest freshwater source on the island. Too bad he outright neglected it and now the whole lake is drowned in algae blooms. >:(

It's to keep both in line, that neither can outflank the other.

Yes, in theory, King Charles III could dissolve Parliament but there would have to be a damn good reason for it.

The only ways that I think he (Charles) could do it and not cause ructions with MP's are:

* Starmer is convicted of a crime and has to be removed from office (though Parliament may ask for a proroguing/suspension which would be backed by other parties. In this case, Charles would grant the proroguing/suspension for however long is necessary).

* Every Labour MP was assassinated and Parliament could not function with over 400 vacant seats (more than is needed to form a Government Majority - the lowest number being 326). This would be a Constitutional and National Crisis and again I believe that Parliament and Monarch would work together.

After the English Civil War, both the power of Parliament and that of the Monarch was limited. Both now depend upon each other, which is a strange system but one which works well to balance off power meaning that the PM cannot ignore the Monarch, but also the Monarch cannot ignore the PM and Parliament.

As for us peons - well, we're told to put a cross in a box every so often to vote for the idiot less likely to rip us off.
 
while agitating to turn the island into a brownoid paradise.
There's always been that tension. The Irish Fenian Brotherhood that fomented the Young Ireland revolts and the raiding into Canada had problems with Republicans in America getting embroiled in abolitionism in the US when the others were trying to focus their efforts towards Ireland alone. The 1960s Gaeltacht activists where extreme Irish language advocates but they were advocating the language in order to divorce the Irish people from the forces of "Anglo-Global Capital" lol.
