The Prince Philip Movement

I believe that celebrations will be muted today in some isolated jungle villages in the South Pacific nation of Vanuatu, who usually celebrate the birthday of everyone’s favorite itinerant Greek sailor Philip Mountbatten (Prince Philippos of the House of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg.)


Vanuatu remains one of the most vulnerable countries on the planet to the negative effects of climate change and natural disasters.

The Duke of Edinburgh was worshiped as a god there.

It must have been nice for him to be worshiped somewhere. While Prince Charles seems like an affable enough fellow, I can’t imagine anyone worshiping him like a god.

And so it goes
