Why should god save the queen?

[RootsBooster 24]

Why shouldn't God save our Queen or King ?

 

Why do the French want to slit the throats of their sons and friends ?

 

It's a patriotic song used as our national anthem which is A christian country .

"GOD SAVE THE QUEEN ! "

Our national anthem is a Christian country?

[Gamston 10]

Our national anthem is a Christian country?

 

Great Britain is a christian country .

What an extraordinary outburst.

 

Why don't you think God should not save the Queen ?

[I1L2T3 10]

The anthem actually has six verses and it's a bit schizophrenic.

 

In it we must unquestioningly accept her reign, shower her with the choicest gifts, vanquish her enemies, love the world like one big hippy family, and crush the Scots.

 

I'm with Corbyn on this. It's ridiculous that anybody should be forced to sign this rubbish.

[Timeh 10]

Assuming there is a god, why exactly should he (or she) save the queen?

 

What about that bit in the bible about rich people not getting into heaven?

 

Discuss....

 

He should save the doctors, the nurses and the carers of our elderly. He should save the teachers, the firemen and paramedics. He should save to worthy, not that parasite.

We have a non-secular state but an increasingly secular society.

 

Basically the state is Christian. Few of its subjects actually actively practice christianity

I thought Corbyn had changed his mind .

It's not great, a better one than flower of Scotland though.

 

I'm not averse to updating it though. Maybe a rap.

And the ladies in Gregg's.

What about waitrose?

[I1L2T3 10]

What about waitrose?

 

Yes them too, especially the ones who do the cleaning. They're much more useful than the queen.

Personally I prefer Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen.

It's not about liking the song, being a monarchist, or trying to elevate oneself to a higher intellectual plane by over-analysing it. It's about fundamental respect. Corbyn shows he has none.
