Of course, that particular king in question, Charles I, eventually lost the argument, and more importantly, his head.  Interestingly, I bear his name - Charles Stuart.


Interesting, indeed..........

<<I mean, wasn't she "appointed by god?">>

I had a class at UDE, a then requirement for a degree with distinction (Aced the course, but missed the cumulative average).  This one was Great English Debates, and one of the topics was the Divine Right of Kings.  Naturally, I was on the pro side.  My team's argument, delivered by me, dressed for the period (early 17th century) took 10 seconds of our allotted 5 minutes:

"Rex summa Dei gratia!"  For the great unwashed, "We are King by the grace of God."



"Praise be to Enax, and blessing to his followers."
