"To Frank and others
on the English royal "bloodline""
Just a little correction to the Merovingian bloodline theory.
The link to the bloodline theories about the British monarchy
says that Princess Diana was brought in to provide
a Merovingian addition to the genealogy of the rulers.
This would be, then, a line going back to Merovee, an ancestor
of the Frankish monarchs of France, Childeric and Clovis, who
were held to be semi-divine by many.
The problem with this theory is that Prince Charles already had
a Merovingian connection, as do most of the rulers
of Europe (both those in power and those who are "pretenders" to
their thrones). Many other people, including many
United States citizens, have this connection--it is not
unusual. So Diana added nothing to the so-called Davidic
bloodline of the Merovingians, as Charles already had that
connection many times over. MANY times over, since
that family married cousins so habitually.
There is a problem ascribing this bloodline as directly
descended from Jesus (in the minds of the royal family,
that is, because we obviously do not believe that theory).
The royal family does believe it is descended from the
House of David, through Tia Tephi, a daughter of Zedekiah, who
migrated with Jeremiah and Baruch to Ireland. This
is the main reason the British royal family has the "Harp of
David" on their coast of arms.
Now it is possible that secretly they (the British royal family)
may believe that they are descended from Jesus directly,
in some manner similar to that presented by the DaVinci
code. But this is completely secret, if so, and no one
knows
about it who is not the insider's insider on this subject.
And I believe it is a false assumption that they believe this.
No
one knows if they believe this, in other words. They are
jumping to conclusions.
It is the Merovingian claim which I am exposing here as
false--that Diana brought a Merovingian lineage to the British
monarchy. No, they already had a Merovingian
lineage. All the royal families of Europe, as well, have
this
Merovingian lineage.
So, whether or not William is the AC (completely unknown to me,
as I think to all of us) Diana had nothing much to do
with it, other than having a lineage similar to all the royals
of England and of Europe. So William is NOT singled out in
that regard.
I have been hooked lately into studying the royal families of
Europe, particularly the Holy Roman Empire representatives,
which include those of Luxembourg, Leichtenstein, many
"pretenders" from German states, the Dutch, Swedish, Danish,
Norse, Swiss, Belgian, and with genetic connections to Spain,
Portugal, Italy, Greece,
Romania, and even over to Constantinople (Prince Charles is
descended from royals who ruled in
Constantinople). These people are now aware of the hazards
of cousin-marriage, and sometimes marry commoners,
I believe to mitigate the genetic hazard. However, when
they do marry royals, which is often, they
make some efforts to look for distantly rather than closely
related spouses-to-be. All the royal families are closely
related. And in that sense, yes, they do have an
incredible "bloodline."
I don't know everything there is to know about this subject, as
it is a huge one. The bloodline records are incredible.
Some
little known people of "royal" descent in Europe, and England,
have complete records of lineages going back to the early
middle ages, some even further. All have Merovingian
connections.
