The Queen's Christmas Message 1975

THE QUEEN'S CHRISTMAS MESSAGE 1975
Buckingham Palace, London, United Kingdom
25 December 1975
In her "special opportunity" of talking to her peoples every Christmas-- filmed from the gardens of Buckingham Palace (being the first time it had been recorded out of doors), The Queen made mentions of the year of record inflation and unemployment in the UK and worldwide. The Queen spoke of the good cheer brought to everyone in the season of Christmas, and that unity in everything that we do "does matter and does make all the difference."

She was no zealot, but when she spoke about Christ, her expression changed to one of intensity. You could see that she genuinely believed in what she was saying. The words were wise and delivered with gentleness. I will never forget her...just the thought of her gives me courage...

[@FindAReason-mi7go]

You could tell that she was a true follower of Christ's actual teachings. She lived between palaces, and treated people as inferior, and conducted herself like a demigod on Earth. - Surely it is easier for a camel to enter through the eye of a needle, than a rich (wo)man to...

[@andrewsharpe1060]

Very nostalgic. I was ten in 1975 and I'm sure must have watched it as my family always watched the Queens speech. What strikes me upon watching it now is how much the Queen and Princess Anne looked alike.

[@robbiethepict2783]

I always look at the Queen as a neighbour on my street, who always scrubs the steps to her front door, dots over her garden and makes sure her children are presented neat and tidy. She's a remarkable woman and a mother.

[@rah62]

Fascinating to listen to the Queen's voice drop in tone over the years. Listen to her first televised xmas speech to hear her as a young lady; this one to hear her middle-aged, and the most recent one to hear her as elderly.

[@hierahrs6186]

It's CHRISTMAS ye Bloody godless heathen

[@SuzanaMantovaniCerqueira]

I miss her. 😢 Annually her presence and Christmas message were so beautiful during Holy Days. Inspiring speech as usual, and how it could be more adapted to our current moment? That’s why to celebrate together in family, friends or group, even making others feel warmer, welcome and happy is quite important. Or help in any necessity. It’s the real Christ’s message. How December is a great Month. Every world should take care and celebrate to bring everything together and work toward forgiveness and in any kind of improvements, personal , familiar or in society. We need exactly this kind of thing : more words to put people looking forward positively. And increase our chances of hope. Hope of better future …

Her Majesty's Christmas messages has always sent great assurance , inspiration and hope through the gift of her nobility. She truly has reached out to each and everyone with her messages and the event of her speeches are a joy to watch and listen to.

Noooooooo. Only the Queen can deliver her messages in the unique way that she does. No actor can replace HM the Queen in the depth of quality and uniqueness she exudes with precision and skill. Stanley Baxter however can mimic the Queen in the context of fun and frivolity but never in a serious role.

Quite an understatement concerning Jesus Christ. Not only what she said is true but His great sacrifice of Himself in dying on the Cross for our sins is enormous. Indeed Christmas is the celebration of His birth. Have you repented of your sins and accepted His salvation ? I surely hope that everyone who reads my comment has or will do that. I find it interesting watching your Queens Christmas speeches. Merry Christmas from the U.S. 2020.

Informasi tambahan: Emas merupakan logam mulia karena tahan karat dan tidak bereaksi dengan zat asam. Bijih emas dan perak biasanya keluar bersama ketika gunung meletus atau memuntahkan cairannya. Emas dan perak dihasilkan di tambang emas di Lokasi di sebelah Utara Pelabuhan Ratu Elizabeth (Pty), (SOUTH AFRICA). Angka karat tertinggi adalah 24 karat, agak lunak, oleh karena itu cincin emas tidak terbuat dari emas murni. Biasanya Zakat Rikaz menggunakan emas 22 karat atau 23 karat artinya: 22 karat emas = 22/24 × 100% emas-91,66% emas 23 karat emas = 23/24 × 100% emas-95,83% emas

[@williamjolliffe2914]

Since Elizabeth II died, there has been much publicity, not so much thought about why she matters, and why monarchy is helpful in general. Monarchy shouldn't be used as real-life soap opera, nor as mere material to fill space in the media. The achievement of the British monarchy should become clear in comparison with the histories of other countries. In the 19th & 20th centuries the U.S.A, France, Germany, Russia, Italy, Spain and Greece suffered in various ways civil wars, political storms, and dictatorships. This shows what can go wrong in the absence of a head of state which is above politics, and which opposes illegal dictatorship. If there are many reasons England, Wales, Scotland, Canada and Australia have had no civil war since Culloden in 1746, having a constitutional monarchy to unify all the people is an important reason. In the UK, 'peace' in formal speech is "The King's Peace". Of course King Charles III's first marriage was a tragic mistake; Prince Philip could be tactless, and he & Elizabeth II made mistakes as parents. Whatever mistakes the royal family have made, let us be grateful for the unity the monarchy gives in the UK & the world. The sea around it didn't protect the U.S.A. against civil war in the 1860s, and the UK could have suffered civil war over slavery in the 19th century; likewise over world war, loss of empire, economic failure, or race in the 20th. There will always be violence and political problems in the world, and billions of people who know or understand nothing of the British monarchy and the stability it brings Britain, the commonwealth (e.g. Canada & Australia). By stabilizing Britain & the commonwealth, it promotes peace in the world. Since the 1700s, billions of people have lived under the British crown without civil war, lynching, dictatorship in their lives. God save King Charles III, and his successors.

Jadwal Diet, Vegetable, (Tao), Puasa Ramadhan, Puasa Tasyrik Sayur dan buah adalah salah satu hadiah besar yang diberikan Tuhan kepada manusia. Hadiah yang diberkatkan untuk menjaga kesehatan manusia tanpa kita menyadarinya. Kita boleh mengira pengetahuan nutrisi dan kesehatan telah sangat maju dibandingkan zaman batu. Kita tentu saja tidak berlebihan menganggap kita mengetahui secara luas tentang sayur dan buah. Kita banyak mengetahui tentang kandungan energi, komposisi vitamin dan mineral, juga kita sudah menemukan serat makanan (Kurma). Namun ternyata masih saja ada hal-hal di balik makanan-makanan yang sudah sangat kita kenal sehari-hari yang belum kita ketahui. Selalu ada penemuan dari diet sayur dan buah yang membuat kita merubah pola makan. Sayur dan buah adalah hadiah Tuhan yang masih belum selesai dibuka. Barangkali juga tidak akan pernah selesai mendamaikan hati manusia.
