Europe as an Imperial Confederation of Monarchies, and including the daughter countries across the globe - Confessional, and embracing Subsidiarity and Solidarity. A dream? A fantasy? No doubt - but so too was the idea of the same space being an interlocking daisy chain of infanticidal republics at some point. The idea may never come to pass - but it certainly won't if it is not imagined.

Ideas have consequences. Great achievements, like great buildings, were once just a dream in somebody’s head.

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
