The Swiss can also claim her because she became a citizen of Switzerland in 2013.

Mormonism is a form of Christianity; it's not Trinitarian Christianity, but it's still Christianity. Likewise, SGI is a form of Buddhism.

Tina was talking about her sickness.
I think it is great that she came public.
Perhaps this is the time to contemplate fame, sickness, and death.
Even if you are the wheel-turning monarch you will die.
