Something has happened in the English monarchy. Quietly.
In the monarchy’s own annual report, the description of the King’s role has been rewritten.
Before, he was named Head of the Church of England and Defender of the Faith. Now the report says he protects the space for faith within the multi-faith nation.
Read that again. Defender of the Faith is gone from the description. In its place, a soft phrase about protecting space for everyone.
That is how a foundation disappears. Not overnight, but through rewordings.
And let me say it as it is.
This did not arise out of love for Buddhism. It is not Hinduism knocking on the door. We know exactly what this is about.
It is about the one faith that grows fastest, and that makes demands. The one no one dares say no to anymore. Islam.
A monarchy that does not dare stand by its own begins to call it tolerance. But a cross that defends everything defends nothing.
Try building a church in Saudi Arabia. Try wearing your cross openly in Iran or Afghanistan. No “defender of all faiths” stands there and holds a hand over you. Only the West demands of itself that it give itself up to be decent.
England became great because it knew what it believed in. It is losing its greatness for exactly the same reason.
A king who defends all faiths soon defends none. And a country that has forgotten what it stands on falls for the first thing that dares stand firm.
England is a good example of that… and many countries are right on its heels.
Why?
Because Europe is on its knees before Islam. What our politicians, the EU and the monarchies think is inclusion will be the undoing of those who come after us.
