We could have if Washington wanted to... they (colonists and founding fathers) did offer him the chance to be king about two times.


So instead of Kings and Queens we have, bear with me here, "His High Mightiness, the President of the United States and Protector of their Liberties" We Americans are so lucky that we no longer have to call Presidents that, but that is the technical title and way to address the President of the United States..too much of a mouthfull really

I spent a little while wondering about using accomplishment, personality and specialty based titles for Knights. Specific little informal titles. For example; William Kaede, Knight of Heresy.


Something that gives insight into a person. They'd have to be given by others though.

I actually snorted with laughter at that one. Sorry!



Walking, stumbling on these shadowfeet

Part of the seduction of most religions is the idea that if you just say the right things and believe really hard, your salvation will be at hand.

With Jediism. No one is coming to save you. You have to get off your ass and do it yourself - Me

It was my understanding that one simply needed a font of honor with sufficient authority--IIRC, other Churches have used the authority of their Divinity as their font, through their high priest, whereas more "modern" organizations tend to find their fonts in heads of state.

While the titles themselves may cause a bit of a row in public, I don't necessarily know that there's anything stopping one from doing so. That said, I would assume that many areas of British origin would have some kind of law governing their use.

Like I think I saw before, would rank be used as a ceremonial purpose. I don't mean like "sir" or "lady", but the ranks like master, knight or whatever. Like in wedding ceremonies, formal gatherings and the such. For example: you are in the military and you are very close to your CO. Any other time you would call him by his name, but formally you refer to his rank. I hope I made sense lol I sometimes can't type what I'm thinking in my head.

I did too. Not just because of the name, but because that is far from accurate for our current president :P
