There is always somebody who prefers to argue or show their 'knowledge' rather than just leave things be for others to enjoy. This isn't meant to be a 'history of the church' thread. Start your own instead of hi-jacking something nice with your nasty posts.

I've nothing against the Royal family just don't approve of the Queen's acceptance of Homosexuals and pro same sex marriage which is against Gods law, just never knew the Anglican Church belonged to the Vatican.


I'm not hijacking anything, just asking questions, seems like you are the one being Nasty, I defended the Royal Family when Meghan Markle spoke against the Royal family and called them racist, for your information, and I'm not a criminal to be hijacking anything.

And I appreciate @Brakelite pointing this out to me as I never knew this.

Congrats to Queen Elizabeth II, 70 years on the throne is a very long time, not many have achieved that and no one before her has ever done that in England, she is the longest reigning Monarch in England.

I love seeing the prices in lsd. I've never seen those before. There are probably some new ones issued for the 70th anniversary but I haven't seen them either.
When I was in England for Christmas in 1970, they were in the process of changing over to the decimal system in their currency. Fortunately for foreigners like myself, the merchants were mostly honest folk. I might have been able to deal with the old system or the new one already in place, but during the process of transition a mathematician would have gotten a headache.

I used to have a very extensive collection of British stamps, but during the past ten years of selling stamps, my own collection is greatly diminished. I still have, of course, catalogs. For Great Britain, my catalog is from 2021 only showing stamps from up to the beginning of 2020. I receive a monthly magazine that shows the most new commemorative issues for Great Britain, but nothing yet regarding the 70th anniversary.

Most of us Brits as well as people from the Commonwealth love our Queen and all the pageantry involved in these state occasions.

It always amazes me when I see people flocking like this and how they get by in such a crowd. They do that for Jesus too in different holy events from my understanding. I like the fact that Jesus is great to many. He is a hero to me.

The queens events are inspiring also.
