	Alternative Charlemagne Award - It's all bogus

		Needless to say, the crowd of "Award Supporters" is made by nearly nobody else than anticultists and ARS posters who were told to massively support the prize much like Scientologists are told to massively support whatever award or pseudo-award that may be attributed to L. Ron Hubbard.

	City Mayors: Charlemagne Prize
		In the 70s and 80s, the awarding of the Prize to representatives of the emergent democracies in Greece and Spain was an important signal intended to strengthen the forces of democracy and to bring these states closer to the European Community.
		The awards of the 90s accordingly focused entirely on the idea of ‘comprehensively joining’ Europe together: they were conferred in particular on representatives of the countries of northern and central-eastern Europe.
		The awarding of the International Charlemagne Prize to U.S. President Bill Clinton in 2000, fifty years after the first presentation, paid tribute to the representative of a nation that throughout five decades has always been a reliable partner of the free nations of Europe.

		Historically correct, however, is that prior to this, Pippin, Charlemagne's father, was building an estate close to the former Roman cathedral thermal spring to which he would retreat on important special occasions.
		For Charlemagne, a spacious thermal bathing facility was built on the ruins of the old Roman baths and in the immediate vicinity of his palace.
		In this regard at least, Charlemagne was committed to the spirit of antiquity, since, for him, too, besides the therapeutic function, bathing also had an important communicative and social role to play.

		By granting this year's award to him, it would have been a sign that the European state of mind is the mission of all Europeans and not just of politicians.
		It would be good for the esteem for the Charlemagne Award and its roots in Aachen and in Europe if at some time in future years a " little" European man (or woman) would be honored for having demonstrated something big for Europe even though his area of influence was only small.
		But enough of the sarcasm: if Bill Clinton thinks the Charlemagne Award is so insignificant that he does not even think it is worth a visit to one of the most beautiful German cities, then surely it wouldn't bother him if somebody else got it.

	The Columbia Encyclopedia's Crimes Against The Truth
		I should not have thought that any cultivated person was unaware that he was a savage in war (the Saxon war), and that he and his daughters and court had a notorious contempt for the Church's supreme virtue, chastity.
		The Columbia adds that "it was not, as is sometimes asserted, universally accepted in the Middle Ages." The undisputed fact is that from the date of Charlemagne's award (774) to within a few years of the end of the Middle Ages (as fixed by this encyclopedia) it was universally accepted.
		That monarch awarded the pope only the territory he had conquered in Italy, which was far smaller; and Pepin, an entirely ignorant and boorish soldier, was duped by a forged "letter from St. Peter in heaven," which we still have, just as Charlemagne was duped by the forged Donation of Constantine.
