British King Charles III believes that the Orthodox Church is the only Christian denomination that is “not corrupted by disgusting political correctness”, the newspaper “Telegraph” reports, citing a letter from the monarch.
In correspondence dating back to 1998, the future king, who was then the Prince of Wales, admitted that as he got older, he was increasingly drawn to “eternal traditions” of the Orthodox Church.
„I personally, the older I get, the more attracted I am to the great, eternal traditions of the Orthodox Church, they are the only ones that have not been corrupted by the disgusting political correctness,” wrote Charles III to his friend Dudley Poplack - the late interior a designer who works closely with the royal family.
In the same correspondence, the king criticized the transition to genetically modified products, or the "Frankenstein" food. He writes that the use of GMOs makes him “absolutely sad and desperate”.
Poplak died in 2005 and the letter was one of several documents relating to royal power sold at Lay's Auctions. A set of six letters was sold for more than 1,700 pounds sterling (about 2.2 thousand dollars).
