My duty is to save the world: Prince Charles believes he was born for a purpose
dailymail ^ | Friday July 30 2010 | Fay Schlesinger

Posted on 07/30/2010 8:28:03 PM PDT by Bigtigermike

The Prince of Wales says he believes he has been placed on Earth as future King ‘for a purpose’ - to save the world.

Giving a fascinating insight into his view of his inherited wealth and influence, he said: ‘I can only somehow imagine that I find myself being born into this position for a purpose.

‘I don’t want my grandchildren or yours to come along and say to me, “Why the hell didn’t you come and do something about this? You knew what the problem was”. That is what motivates me.

‘I wanted to express something in the outer world that I feel inside... We seem to have lost that understanding of the whole of nature and the universe as a living entity.’

His impassioned comments come during a film about his belief that unbridled commerce has led to the destruction of farmland and countryside.

The documentary, called Harmony, is due to be aired on the U.S. network NBC in November to coincide with the launch of a book of the same name by the prince.

Charles is understood to have waived his author’s fee, and all royalties will go to his charity, the Prince’s Trust.

Either way, he’s done a lot of good, rescuing youths that the government and society gave up on.

Can he be any more delusional? He won’t even be King; Elizabeth knows what a dolt he is and will arrange for William or Harry to be king, even if it means locking charles in the Tower.

Charlie look back upon your own country the way it colonized the world and threw many a country into slavery through the East Indian trading company and the opium wars and such.

He’s apparently a lunatic, which would explain his cheating on one of the most beautiful women in the world.

As apposed to the Billions his endorsement has caused the world to waste on the falsehood of global warming. The Billions that could have been better spent saving the lost youths of the world.

Charlie has gone ‘round the bend.

I really don’t think he’ll ever be King. My bet is that it goes to William.

We all make stupid mistakes. Besides, the entertainment industry got that ball rolling. He only talks about what is in sync with the British government’s policies, so he had to have had government approval.

Born British, and just 1 month after this Bozo, I was doomed to be named Charles too...

Thank God I was born a female...

King Canute tried to stop the waves of the ocean by lifting his arm.

Maybe with a wave of his hand, Prince Charles can move the earth further from the sun and stop global warming!

The Royal Family has an incredible amount of wealth. If they want to preserve the countryside, why don’t they buy up some large threatened tracts and make them into nature preserves?

Wealthy liberals, even (especially?) princes, are always about using other people’s money to achieve their agenda.

First, there was Gore, then Obama, and now the Prince of Wales. I guess with the three of them at work to save the world, it’s pretty much bound to get saved.

King Canute was a piker

Who said this:

I am absolutely certain that generations from now, we will be able to look back and tell our children that this was the moment when we began to provide care for the sick and good jobs to the jobless; this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal; this was the moment when we ended a war and secured our nation and restored our image as the last, best hope on earth.

It has finally happened: centuries of inbreeding have produced the perfect idiot. Someone needs to tell him that nothing is more embarrassing than an aging bore with too much time on his hands.

Too much money and no job. Nothing to do with your life but seek pleasures. Never having to worry about one single thing but if your polo pony is in good health. These things make for a worthless life and crazy thoughts. He doesn’t live in the real world. A spoiled child that never grew up and no one ever said no to him but Diana.

With all the media attention given over Chelsea Clinton’s wedding I can’t help but think that a large percentage of the population longs for royalty and a ruling class made up of twits like this guy.

Just because the DBM reports on it, doesnt mean that the masses are interested in it. They have an agenda, I think more and more people are catching on to it and tuning them out.

Everybody on the face of this earth is born for a purpose, Prince Charlie. The challenge is finding out what that is, and doing it.

It’s the Liberals that rule the media that “longs for royalty and a ruling class made up of twits like this guy.”

And they always pick the most vile, disgusting, corrupt excuses for human beings they can find to adore.

The Prince is right, he was born for a purpose. Unfortunately, that purpose was to be a protective, loving, and understanding husband to Diana Spenser.

Wow. And I'm sure it's going to be a really big hit and make millions too.

I think it's safe to say that if that were in fact the Prince's destiny, Divine Providence would have seen fit to endow him with far more intellectual firepower than it actually did, so as to enable him to accomplish the task.
