[edit] Archbishop of Canterbury

I thought the Crown was head of the Anglican Communion? Archbishops are merely heads of their sees and there are senior archbishops among the sees, am I right? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.110.8.21 (talk) 15:49, 14 April 2007 (UTC).

Well, I added the reference, so its correct, as I took it straight from them. What this means for the relation to the Queen, I wouldn't really know...MadMaxDog 11:06, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Animal Farm

Would the pigs in Animal Farm be considered Primus inter pares? 71.72.251.140 03:08, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

Probably, but then I haven't read the book, and couldn't reference it either.MadMaxDog 11:05, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Some are more equal.

Does anyone know the origin of the quote "All/everyone is/are equal (in the state, under the law, within nature), but some are more equal than others."? That might deserve a mention in this article. Nagelfar 17:53, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

I only know that one from Animal Farm by George Orwell. Blarneytherinosaur ^gabby? 08:52, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
