One person is equal to another.. Why did society come up with the term "Royalty"?

Question

This is a sickness in society..I hate the word "ROYALTY". The Queen of England, walks around with her nose in the air, as if her **** smells better than someone else's.

Answer 1

How dare you speak about the queen that way...off with your head.....LOL  



   Royality through-out history has always been the people with money and/or power over the common joe on the street.The blue bloods if you will...but if I cut them do thye not still bleed like you or I...Unsure-lets double check.

Answer 2

They are a throw back to a bygone era. Back then people needed leaders, now we have society and elected governments and we can do as we please. Just don't upset the queen. trust me you wouldn't want to live in China or Burma or Africa I could go on but count your blessings....

Answer 3

Your premise is incorrect!

One person is NOT equal to another!!

I presume you consider yourself equal to a scientist/doctor for instance?

Because everyone has differing talents and abilities, no two people are equal, although some may be better at some things than others and vice versa!

Also, there is NO Queen of England!!

I would guess the Queen has probably far more abilities and a dedication to duty than you will ever have!!

Answer 4

Well commie, it is quite simple. We are all equal but some people are more equal than others. - Animal Farm by George Orwell. Read it if you can stand the criticism of communism in there.

Answer 5

We are all equal, the Queen knows she is in a position of power and owes it to her people.

The fact that you are able to write that shows that we have freedom of speech and if we wished to we could have a revolution.

Answer 6

They invented the word just for themselves . You see royalty could also mean payment.Like royalty for a song.In their case it is the ignorant public who is paying the royalty to the royal craps so they can maintain their royal way of life. Tell me what good have all those nasty figures in the palace done to the public?? They don't even participate in the decision making of the Brits.They are just inside their living rooms and waiting to be served by their foolish followers. I, too hate that bloody word!! But mind you it means much to the Brits. Royal fools!!

Answer 7

People are like sheep and they need leaders to lead them. In these days queens and kings no longer govern, but presidents and cabinets due. What's so different about it now? They still wear more expensive jewelry and suits than your entire house worth.

Answer 8

It wasn't 'society'.  It was kings and their supporters or servants who tended to make people who objected to the King robbing and terrorising them a head shorter.  The church also invented a whole tissue of lies and bovine excrement to bolster the arch-criminals' special status.

In later years, more intelligent kings added bribes to their armoury of threats - such as a nice farm for a small rent, a minor official's post, or a red coat, a pound of dodgy beef and a shilling a day.  And many fools were grateful for this.

In later years still, many, many fools led lives so empty that the media could dangle the royals' silly outfits and sillier games in front of them, and the poor little wage slaves  enjoyed fantasising about wearing the silly outfit, riding in the gaudy coach, shagging the prince/princess etc.  It became quite a big business to promote this web of fantasy.

In fact, it still is.

Bloody fools!

Answer 9

its human nature to want power i guess

Answer 10

A long time ago, a bunch of bullies got powerful enough to tell everyone else they were better and got it to stick.

Answer 11

Because historically people were not equal to one another.
