Good for him! How can you criticize a sermon on civil rights and the redemptive power of love? I loved it. Read on....
"WINDSOR, England — British royal weddings aren’t known for their soaring reflections on redemption, justice and civil rights.
"But that’s what millions around the world got Saturday when the Most Rev. Michael Bruce Curry quoted a slave song and a speech by slain American civil rights icon Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. during Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s wedding."

As a former member of the 'Great British Empire', I think that the main reason people are complaining about him is because he departed from the 'normal' English conservative manner of delivering somber religious warnings that are so familiar in those kind of surroundings. He didn't comply with tradition!
"Curry, who is American, spoke animatedly about love, God and Instagram in a long and partly improvised sermon before a bunch of royals who seemed... perplexed. He even evoked slavery as he spoke about “the dynamic power of love.”
"It was just a bit of a shift from the sermon delivered at the 2011 wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.
"The reverend is the first black person to lead the Episcopal Church, which is part of the Anglican Communion like the Church of England.
"Twitter lit up with Americans celebrating the significance of both Curry’s presence and his words."
if you stick "REV" in front of your name you can get away with murder is well out of date and so is the sky fairy
