umm, saying someone's bloodline is worthy of royalty is racist, it's the most obvious form of racism ever. It obviously implies that every one else's bloodline is not good enuf to be royalty. Exclusion based on your family bloodline is obviously racist.

And, again, it doesn't really matter anymore. Their power has been significantly diminished and they inherit mostly their own family's wealth and fortune so why would they give it to someone outside the family? Hence my comparison to your grandmother's house. Last edited by Marsh.; 09-01-2012 at 07:39 PM. |

The fact that someone already part of the Royal Family gives birth, that child then by way of blood, also becomes part of it. It seems the words 'hereditary' and 'bloodlines' may possibly be ones that you don't quite understand if you aren't able to grasp that they are nothing to do with racism. Looks like this is just another Bash The Brits thread from our fellow fms across the Pond. |

How is it bash the Brits?? Britain is not the only country with a hereditary Monarchy, I'd say the same thing about any monarchy, not just the British one, so i'm not singling out Brits.

Your churlish attempts to infer that the Royal Family are racist, that's what I'm referring to. I did not state you were singling out the Brits, but you are on a UK forum therefore it is pertinent.

Not really the case. The next (Should Charles abdicate) Queen would have come from a working class family. With William being King of course.
