Assuming a Cardinal has the same status as a Duke (next down from a Prince) what next? If the Cardinal becomes a Baron, does that give princedom in the Church and the lowest status the peerage? How dreadful, a mere life peer with the lowly rank of baron, taking part in the election of the head of the Vatican State! That will not do!

At a State event, what will he wear, a coronet, a mitre or a hybridised form of headgear? I kike the idea of a mitre with little gold spherical objects, or a pointed coronet.

Are we likely to have Baron the Cardinal or Cardinal Baron?

At the investiture the new Lord must kiss Her Majesty's hand. Will she and Prince Philip kiss the new Lord's ring?

The possibilities are endless.

Americans must find us rather quaint, but our tradititional oddities are fun!
