One last thing on the Lord

Well, not quite, the Lords. I recently posted on Kings and Queens and discussed how we were considered commoners and therefore, in England they have the House of Commons. England has a two part legislature, the other is the House of Lords.

The House of Lords, what an interesting name. The House of Lords includes religious, church leaders. How can a Christian refer to himself as a Lord? What sort of Christian allows themselves to be called Lord? Who creates two legislatures, one for commoners and one for Lords?

Too many of us wish to be Masters and Lords and, well basically, our own God and the God over others. The Queen appoints people as Lords. It does not sound very democratic, sounds pretty totalitarian regardless of the laws they pass.
