Nobody.

Elizabeth II is not the Queen of Scotland. She is not the Queen of England. She is Queen of the United Kingdom.

Queen Elizabeth II is descended from Macbeth, that explains why she is a tough old bird.
Keep the Faith!

The Queen is also, Duke of Normandy, Duke of Lancaster and Lord of Mann. Technically it is a misnomer to call her majesty Queen Elizabeth II anywhere for she is in fact the 1st Queen Elizabeth of Great Britain and the first Queen Elizabeth of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland which was established in 1927 by the Royal and Parliamentary Titles Act 1927. Why then do we call her QEII well its a mistake but after 60 years its a bit late to change.

She is, however, the second Queen Elizabeth to ascend the throne.

Only the throne of England,
Which is the most important ascension as far as the monarchy goes.

And probably a scotch! (Just a wee dram of course)

I think this thread, short as it is so far, amply demonstrates the incompatability of patriotism and christianity.

And unlike the throne, the Headship of the Commonwealth is not hereditary.

Well, the Church doesn't say that.

What about St Joan of Arc?

I'm no nationalist, by a long chalk, but patriotism is surely just an extension of filial piety.
