I would like to ask a different question concerning the excitement of Rabbi Mirvis. How can a Rabbi show excitement at the coronation of a man who publicly, in an interview, admitted he committed adultery with a married woman, when he was still married? That is an issur that should not be ignored by a Rabbi. The fact that the goyisher government ignores it, and crowns someone “defender of the faith ” when he blatantly isn’t; when Edward 8th was forced to abdicate , just because he wanted to marry a divorcee, which isn’t recognized by their religion ; when Charles’s remarriage was only a civil one, because the church would
only have a ceremony that was not an actual wedding; just because the goyim have caved in to the predominant apikorsas culture, a Rabbi should stay firm. He shouldn’t say these things, but just explain he cannot attend for religious reasons of a church service. He shouldn’t be so happy about the coronation.
