    He did not use parentheses, and I don't need an explanation of Queen Elizabeth II's mother's status, thank you.

    As it stands, he will be unable to explain himself, so at this point there's no use in wondering what he was talking about.

    The definition of unfamiliar does not include 'something that one dislikes'. Why not stick to the words I actually wrote and not what you think I wrote? A person unfamiliar with the style of black preaching does not mean they will automatically dislike it. Actually some folks liked it and some did not.

    Since my reply was not meant for you and the person it was meant for did not take it in the nasty spirit you are projecting I'll assume you got out of bed on the wrong side or your telepathic skills are switched off....again.

    The tone of your post came across as "You're unfamiliar with this style of preaching, so that's why you didn't like it."

    Since about 99.9% of North American English-speakers know about the name pairings you listed, your post came off as condescending, an attitude that wasn't merited.

    It's a public forum, and people have opinions about posts not directed to them. They comment on posts not directed to them, and even drop "likes" on posts not directed to them.

    Your perception is not based on the reality of what was posted, as shown by how you chose to translate what I wrote. Sometimes a written cigar is just a written cigar no more or less.

    "Black preachers don't do five minutes, but you're not familiar with that aspect of the culture, atheist or not."
    Behold the innocent remark that got your knickers in a twist...smdh

    I am not North American and seeing written insults where non existed seems to be your forte.

    For someone looking for 'condescending attitudes' you produce it in spades yourself.

    Why would you assume I'm unfamiliar with "that aspect of the culture"? I never said I was unfamiliar with it, just that I didn't like his motormouth performance.

    I don't need to look for them when they're staring everyone in the face. The Henry/Harry combination isn't as common these days, so it's not surprising to me that some people might not have heard of it.


    You're focusing on the color of the preacher's skin. I'm focusing on how long he rambled on. Black preachers don't have the monopoly on pointless rambling in church. I once attended a New Year's Eve dance at a local church (my grandmother wanted to go, but not alone, so I went with her to keep her company).

    There was supposed to be a brief sermon before midnight (like around 11:30 pm and we should have been back in the hall to ring in the New Year), but the preaching went on and on and on to the point that he was still yapping away well after midnight.

    While you're busy "sydh", I'm done with this conversation.

    No you just decide to make shit up and get insulted rather than ask for clarification.
    Feel free to ignore me, might be good for your blood pressure

    I'm sorry that I'm late to this thread. Just wanted to give a friendly reminder to all thread participants who may still be reading this, to please stick to the topic of the thread, and avoid getting personal with other posters. Thank you.

    Do you think Meghan is already pregnant? The couple indicated to produce additional royal offspring.

    Because of her age if she does want children time is not on her side biologically, they can afford IVF but there is no guarantee it will work. I hope they do not have problems producing babies cos I want it to look like its maternal granny lol

    Believe! Its bad enough the rumours going around as fact about Harry's paternal genetic heritage, people act as if they were actually there at the time of conception...

    Since there is basically no chance that Harry ever becomes king, I doubt that he and Meghan would be under any real pressure to have kids. It’ll happen when/if they feel like it. :shrug:

    The Queen ordered Meghan to sighn a marriage contract. In case there is a divorce, the children have to remain in the custody of the House of Windsor.
