I have to admit that the media coverage of the British Royals is often too sensationalist for me, not to mention that I generally don’t care about celebrity news anyway. But this one<\/a>…I guess I had to bring up, perhaps as an antidote for all the grim material that has appeared recently on this blog:<\/p>\n

On a recent trip to Australia, Prince William and his wife Kate Middleton were ambling toward their helicopter when a gust of wind stirred Middleton\u2019s dress \u2014 and an international controversy.<\/p>\n

Far away, a curly-haired Australian photographer named Diane Morel had just snapped a picture of Middleton. At the time, she didn\u2019t know what she had. \u201cIt wasn\u2019t until I got home,\u201d\u00a0she told the Sydney Daily Telegraph, \u201cand I popped my camera card into the computer that I realized what I had captured.\u201d<\/p>\n

But there it was: Kate Middleton\u2019s behind.<\/p>\n

This clearly was a valuable commodity. But what to do with it? British tabloids, which are usually keen to publish just about anything, are famously hesitant to run images that scandalize their royalty. But a German tabloid named Bild had no such reservations.<\/p>\n

Bild is refusing to back off its pics \u2014 which it\u00a0ran again\u00a0yesterday beside images of Kim Kardashian\u2019s rear end \u2014 and other outlets have now joined the fray.<\/p>\n

According to the Daily Star, the duchess is \u201cfurious.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cKate realizes she has a very public life,\u201d said an anonymous source. \u201cBut she does believe she\u2019s entitled to a certain amount of privacy. She doesn\u2019t expect to see her naked [expletive] splashed across a German tabloid. She\u2019s furious. She and Prince William are once again considering their legal options.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Which will be hilarious to watch. But it certainly is reminiscent of Genesis 33:<\/p>\n

\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
33:18<\/b>\u00a0And he said, I beseech thee, shew me thy glory.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
33:19<\/b>\u00a0And he said, I will make all my goodness pass before thee, and I will proclaim the name of the LORD before thee; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will shew mercy on whom I will shew mercy.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
33:20<\/b>\u00a0And he said,\u00a0Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
33:21<\/b>\u00a0And the LORD said, Behold, there is a place by me, and thou shalt stand upon a rock:<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
33:22<\/b>\u00a0And it shall come to pass,\u00a0while my glory passeth by, that I will put thee in a clift of the rock, and will cover thee with my hand while I pass by:<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
33:23<\/b>\u00a0And\u00a0I will take away mine hand, and thou shalt see my back parts<\/b>: but my face shall not be seen.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Since according to the New Testament Jesus is God, it puzzles me how come so many people met him face to face and survived.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
