You're all very knowledgable about this subject and I have been both educated and impressed with what you all have said. I do understand several things differently now, which I believe is one of the reasons for these threads. I may not agree with everything you have to say yet I will admit I do agree with some things and I appreciate them being pointed out in a way I can easily understand. Hope there's no hard feelings. What strikes me most (besides how much you all seem to know) is your loyalty to your beliefs. I respect your opinions and I've enjoyed (and learned from) the debate and I do look at monarchies a little bit differently now.
