The Cistercian Monks Of Stift Heiligenkreuz

[MrChrisking12345]

I dont really like this :(

[anno41]

well in the next 10 years who know what will happen ( its now 2011)

[Navajo549]

most of these comments have nothing to do with the music which is good but way to soft, can't hear it clearly. They need better accoustics

[adamfaramir]

wow the monks are so young

[KingStreetZ253]

.i dont believe in venerating mary because she isnt god and i believe that would be blasphemous

[negoni8]

i believe the Anglican Church is Catholic. have believed in the Communion of the Saints, and in the resurrection- of the spirit immediately after death- and of the body afterwards.

[speedstick77]

"What we believe is the true faith. Everyone else is wrong. and going straight to hell". Yeah.....right..... Hey, the Muslims are offering me 70 virgins. LOLOLOL Dat sounds nice already.

[franzeenta]

Please do not arguing with each other, friends. Lots of challenge from world outside are waiting us to down.

[andersmh123]

I do not fiddle around so much with "doctrinal" backbiting when it comes to nuances between some of our common Christian faiths. The most important law according to Christ's own words were LOVE ONE ANOTHER..if we do this then all will be right in the world.

[smallmaniac]

That was incredible. You may find it appropriate to call me a member of a protestant denomination, but I am foremost a son of God and a follower of Christ. Thus, I believe that our God, who is so massive, has beauty in many places. I only wish they sang Gregorian chant in my church.

[TheOrlandoCatholic]

@RDSoulful23: What would have happened if Mary had not accepted God's plan as openly and whole-heartedly as she did? That is why we look to her...to learn how to do just that! She was the first Christian, and the first Tabernacle of the Living Word. How can ANY Christian not venerate her???

[elblogdemarcelo]

Dios les bendiga siempre,...¡Qué hermoso! Un saludo lleno de alegría desde Tenerife (Islas Canarias - España)

[AnotherCuppaCoffee]

St. Maximus, backed by the pope who was executed by the Eastern Emperor, taught that for any one human being to be saved all humans must be saved and that God, in His endless lovingkindness toward humanity, would bring this about. St. Maximus and the executed pope were cleared of heresy for this understanding of Scripture and Salvation.

[egaycrm1588]

@solaris888. please if we Christians hate each other just because we have different beliefs then how are we different from the children of Satan. Our Lord Jesus Christ showed His Divine Love even to those, during His Crucifixion, mocked ridiculed and cursed Him.

[BrotherAlphonsusMary]

This is such beautiful music. So smooth and flowing. It speaks of God to the very depths of our souls.

[SuperkingJJ]

no god

[MrMichael446]

so beautiful. the LORD has blessed us in so many ways. why does the world hve 2 b so blind. PAX 2 u my brothers & sisters in life. i,m so glad the LORD JESUS come into my life. how good/great he is! Mr. Michael

[SirTristramofMalta]

Υπάρχει μόνο μία εκκλησία παραδίδονται με ψευδοπροφήτες ή τον άνθρωπο αλλά από τον Θεό - που είναι το ρωμαϊκό καθολική εκκλησία

[herauthon]

only one true god - and if so - would he/she/it/the care - i think not - this trivial exchange of words don't make it better - one god - many gods - does it matter? You believe, they believe, we believe

And i don't - now batter me

[Julian9ehp]

It matters. For example, some people in varied faiths believe that a suicidal death which kills those who do not believe is pleasing to God. Is this true or false? What you think determines how you act.

[cheekydevilmandaz]

i love the angels and all their music even this one but i am not catholic i am cv i don't believe in god i believe in spirtual. i believe that their is probably a god but that he has come to everyone in the world in different forms but still. there is one god

[AureusVenerabilis]

@Nekrohol

So I am not a Catholic? :-D

[gazomu]

Muslim have easier than Christian: to mahomet, God just sent Gabriel to dictate him a book :)

[Leafygent]

HAhahahaah oh my god, you people

[Nekrohol]

St. Anthony Mary Claret got a stroke when he heard the heresies that were flying around when Vatican l came out, in 1870; today he would die on the spot seeing the absolute sect of apostasy and heresy which is the Novus Ordo, which claims to be the Catholic Church!

What an outrage! What scandal! What a complete mockery the Novus Ordo sect makes of the Holy Roman Catholic Church, the Spotless Bride of Christ! Away with it and with apostates like you!

[AureusVenerabilis]

And how do you dare to mention st. Anthony? He was also loyal to the Church

[Nekrohol]

Yes, he was loyal when the Church was fine, in the late 19th century, when there was a real Pope

[AureusVenerabilis]

Do you know what? It doesn't make sense to have any discussions with you... We can argue forever, but is there any reason to do it? You will always tell me that JPII. isn't a pope... I know that there is the truth... Leave me alone, will you?

[AureusVenerabilis]

And may God and the most Holy Virgin Mary lead you out of that heretic things you're writing...

God bless you

[Nekrohol]

@AureusVenerabilis: you don't even know what a heresy is.

[RDSoulful23]

I ask this as a question and not as an attack. I am a Christian, I was offered up a baptist as a baby. Christened and Confirmed an Anglican and in recent years I have attended a Pentecostal Church. My allegiance is to the Holy Trinity and not to any one house of faith. Anyway can you explain to me why it appears that so much emphasis in Catholicism is placed on the virgin Mary, including prayer.?

[AFaithfulServant]

I would advise you to visit the Catholic Answers website (Google it) and select from the menu at the top "Library", then "Faith tracts", then "Mary and the Saints" and go from there. Drop me a line if you have more questions.

[eyecandyt]

Because she is the mother of the saviour Jesus,she was choosen by God to bear his son. Angels have given mary messages from God to her. And the bible tells us to pray.

[SummaTheologica]

We venerate her because she is truly the Mother of God (Council of Ephesus, 5th Century A.D) and worthy of all honour above that of the saints. Jesus was obedient to her, and she is immensely privileged (immaculate conception etc). For a Catholic, worship is the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass which is offered TO God ONLY and which may be offered in honour or memory of some saint or Our Lady. Songs, hymns, and prayers do not always indicate worship but veneration and requests for intercession.

[TheOrlandoCatholic]

Mary was the 1st 'tabernacle' of the Word. She enveloped the Word as He became Incarnate. She delivered Him into our world for our salvation. She was the turning point in the history of salvation for mankind by undoing what Adam & Eve had done. She was persecuted, had to flee to Egypt, had to endure His suffering, was active in the Early Church, and stays close to us.

[TheOrlandoCatholic]

Also, please, understand that Catholics & Orthodox have believed for 2000 yrs in the Communion of the Saints, meaning that we believe in the resurrection- of the spirit immediately after death- and of the body afterwards. That is why we ask for prayers from those who have gone already, and pray for them as well, just like we pray for each other here. It does not make sense to Protestants & Evangelicals because of the belief that everyone is 'dormant' after death.

[sayhitoshas]

@TheOrlandoCatholic Thank you for this detailed information. It was very helpful.

[angrymikep]

@TheOrlandoCatholic I truely do not understand your perspective on such religious views as you have mentioned. What is your Biblical bases for this type belief in life and death. Surely you have some scriptural bases to support what you saying?

[TheOrlandoCatholic]

@angrymikep I wish you had mentioned exactly what part you want me to offer a biblical basis for...you only say about life and death. What we believe about life & death is that because of Jesus there is a resurrection, which means death is not binding anymore. Is that what you are asking? I'm not sure. :( If so, the entire NT is proof of the resurrection!

[angrymikep]

@TheOrlandoCatholic

[angrymikep]

@TheOrlandoCatholic surely you must have some biblical bases for what your saying. If we as believers follow the teachings of Christ and not the teachings of men there would not be so many controdictions between different denominations of the faith. Please, if you can post the bible verse or verses that support what you are saying.

[angrymikep]

@TheOrlandoCatholic dfdfd

[2ndbase21325]

@TheOrlandoCatholic Evangelicals do not believe you are dormant after death. We believe in the resurrection of the spirit to heaven when you die and after the second coming of Christ we receive a glorified body when "all things are made new". Communion of the saints doesn't make sense to evangelicals because nowhere in Scripture does it say we are to pray to/for anyone after they are dead.

[catherinesteph]

@2ndbase21325 nowhere in scripture does it say that we should base our faith "sola scriptura". - just a thought.

[2ndbase21325]

@catherinesteph excepting that it says it is the very word of God... sort of implied, I would think.

[catherinesteph]

@2ndbase21325 Ah yes, perhaps now you see... we believe much the same about traditional beliefs and practices which can be traced back to the apostles' teachings [though not necessarily stated explicitly in their writings]... we believe that they taught us [and by the grace of the Holy Spirit we have preserved it through the ages] though some of it was never actually written down. - as you say "(its) sorta implied"

[AnglicanMajor]

A comment from someone who stumbled onto this argument quite by accident looking for something sublime - this division within the Roman Church is the principal reason I became Anglican after forty odd years as a Catholic. We have our problems but they pale into naught when both lists are comepared side by side. If nothing else, this post by someone considered apostate by all Roman Catholics should pour some balm on open wounds!

[Nekrohol]

Anglicanism is heretical and illogical, not to mention MAN-MADE, how can you possibly believe in a sect that was created by the whims of an impure and heretical man?

There is no "division" in Roman Catholicism; what happens is that AureusVenerabilis is NOT a real Catholic, but a phony posing as a Catholic.

Not to mention that we are in the Great Apostasy right now: the last 5 supposed "popes" have been in fact antipopes, and what would-be the Church in Rome right now, is NOT the Church.

[SummaTheologica]

i believe the Anglican Church herself is hit by a huge schism between the liberals and the conservatives which cannot be repaired. Hundreds of thousands of Anglicans have already left to become Catholic. Conservative or traditional, Catholics may have different views on some things but we are always under the same Head (the Holy Father). Liberal catholics who deny Church teaching and sedevacatists are outside of the fold no matter how Catholic they claim to be.

[solariis888]

@SummaTheologica Fuck the Goddamned protestants!!!! Get the Fuck out of Ireland!!!!!!!!!

[pegasus1747]

@SummaTheologica , I believe you are incorrect in he number of Anglicans converting to Catholicism

[brassspitoon]

@pegasus1747 Of course he is incorrect, but that never stops a triumphalist of the Romanist fold from spouting propaganda. Perhaps he ought to consider the problem of lapsed Catholics who number in the millions, not hundreds of thousands, and as an Anglican I say that with fraternal sadness not schadenfreude.

[AureusVenerabilis]

speaking, pardon... one Holy Father, one Catholic Church, one God...

[AureusVenerabilis]

Sorry, but sedevacationists don't consider such great person as Holy Father John Paul II. a "legal" Pope and YOU DARE TO CALL US HERETICS?

[davecyco]

If you believed the Catholic Faith, and that all who die outside of it are lost, then you would not think JP2 was a great person, but a great fiend, since he encouraged all kinds of pagan idolatry, and never rebuked them. He even praised their false religions, accepted their blessings and joined in their prayers.

[AureusVenerabilis]

He NEVER praised another religion... Don't mix paganism, praising another religions and ecumenism together, they are not the same...

Holy Father was the man of ecumenism, not pagan...

[Nekrohol]

Not only was Assisi Round ll a repeat of Asissi l, in which representatives of most of the false religions of the world were invited by JPll to "pray" together and give their own "sermons", among other abominations, but get this: JPll actually gave every one of the non-Christian infidels rooms in which to adore the Devil! The muslims got their room facing Mecca; Jews a room never being blessed in the name of Christ; indians a room with a window for their burnings, etc.

Downright satanic.

[Nekrohol]

l mean, if that doesn't convince you of JPll's complete apostasy, then nothing will.

ln the 4th century regional council of Orange, to worship idols after having been a baptized Catholic, was considered the height of iniquity.

Now what would they say about a man who purported to be the Church's "Pope", who gave a room to every infidel in which to adore the Devil and perform their idol and false worships, and not to mention in a Catholic monastery!?

As the Height of apostasy indeed.

[davecyco]

Excuse me but heresy is the denial of a Divinely revealed dogma of the Faith, not the rejection of a person who denies them.

He never praised another religion? I suppose Benedict XVI never did either then? You know not whereof you speak.

[AureusVenerabilis]

I KNOW what I am spesking about... JPII and BXVI are Christians, Catholics, It's silly that they would worship any other gods...Do you know the word "ecumenism"?

Say what you want, but there is only one true God one true Catholic Church and one Holy Father I'll be loyal to...

[davecyco]

If you know what you are "spesking" about, then why did you make a factual incorrect assertion?

Both men offered words of praise and esteem to false religions. For example, your "pope" Benedict said:

"my personal view of the Quran, for which I have the respect due to the holy book of a great religion"

This is a fact.

[AureusVenerabilis]

Chill, yes? I made one mistake ( S instead of A, it's not my fault). Well, Muslims are Muslims, but did you read my previous message? Try to read it...

[AureusVenerabilis]

I repeat: THERE IS ONLY ONE TRUE GOD, ONE TRUE CATHOLIC CHURCH AND ONE HOLY FATHER I'LL BE LOYAL TO...

[davecyco]

Benedict XVI is not the Holy Father. THAT is what I am saying.

[AureusVenerabilis]

When he isn't (it's sure he is,that's silly what you're saying), who then? But don't go on me with that "antipopes" like Linus II., Leo XIV. or what...

[davecyco]

Oh yeah, because one who teaches heresy can be a pope!

Who is the pope? I wouldn't be much of a sede if I had an answer for that question, would I? ;)

[AureusVenerabilis]

Check Catechism of the Catholic Church :-) if you want to know who is the Pope

[BrotherAlphonsusMary]

@davecyco This is where you are wrong. Benedict XVI is the valid current Pope. It makes no difference whether you believe this to be true or not.

[davecyco]

@BrotherAlphonsusMary saying it doesn't make it so.

[BrotherAlphonsusMary]

@davecyco Right back atcha! :)

[davecyco]

@BrotherAlphonsusMary Not so. You see, I have presented the evidence that consists not of "my saying so" but of the words of the man himself, as recorded in his own books, which are directly contrary to the dogmatic definitions of the Vatican Council concerning the primacy of the papacy.

If you feel that you can show how the principles applied in the very first article that comes up when you Goodle "Ratzinger denies a BIG dogma", then feel free to PM me.

[BrotherAlphonsusMary]

@davecyco No sir, no deal. Read my channel, you can consider that my reply to you.

[davecyco]

@BrotherAlphonsusMary You're a blind heretic. You say that "Extra Ecclesiam Nulla Salus" is not to be taken literally. I suppose: "Hence, too, that meaning of the sacred dogmas is ever to be maintained which has once been declared by Holy mother Church, and there must never be any abandonment of this sense under the pretext or in the name of a more profound understanding" (Pope Pius IX, Vatican Council, ex cathedra) Is not to be taken literally either?

[davecyco]

@BrotherAlphonsusMary Or perhaps "Urged by faith, we are obliged to believe and to maintain that the Church is one, holy, catholic, and also apostolic. We believe in her firmly and we confess with simplicity that outside of her there is neither salvation nor the remission of sins [...] Furthermore, we declare, we proclaim, we define that it is absolutely necessary for salvation that every human creature be subject to the Roman Pontiff." - Pope Boniface VIII, Unam Sanctam, ex cathdera.

[davecyco]

@BrotherAlphonsusMary So if it is not to be taken literally, then can I be saved AlphonsusMary? I believe exactly what those two dogmatic definitions say, as well as all the others, which is why I hold that Ratzinger cannot be pope, since he does not even hold the Catholic faith or its dogmas. Fidelity to the Roman Pontiff means subjecting oneself to ONLY those who both claim to be Pontiff and HOLD THE CATHOLIC FAITH, rather than deny it and distort it. Your channel has opinion, not REASON.

[BrotherAlphonsusMary]

@davecyco I've no need to discuss this with you further sir. I've posted noting contrary to the True Catholic Church.

[BrotherAlphonsusMary]

@davecyco I've no need to defend anything I've posted here or on my channel. I have said nothing contrary to faith, reason, or the True Catholic Church.

[davecyco]

@BrotherAlphonsusMary if you attempt a comprehensive defense of Vatican II, commenting on the actual contents of the documents thereof, you will say much against reason and the Catholic Faith.

[AureusVenerabilis]

Read PASTOR AETERNUS...

[davecyco]

I am very well acquainted with the (one and only) Vatican Council. It is one of the reasons I reject your "church", which is led by men who contradict the teachings contained therein.

For example Benedict XVI's denial of the very Constitution you speak of!

Google "Ratzinger denies a BIG dogma".

[AureusVenerabilis]

HAH, but not everything what you find on Google is true...there will be always people who will attack Holy Church...also via Google

[davecyco]

Of course I agree with your statement as it stands. I also assert that people attack Holy Mother Church in books they write.

"Principles of Catholic Theology" by Joseph Ratzinger comes to mind.

Or are you going to say he didn't write that book?

[AureusVenerabilis]

Look, this discussion doesn't lead to anything... Will we argue forever?

[davecyco]

This discussion has been very revealing for anyone reading it actually. I make claims backed up with actual facts and comparisons between the writings of the antipope and the Catholic Council he denies, and you don't bring any substance to the discussion.

Ultimately you cannot, because if you were to examine the substance behind the sede vacante position (and if you were honest), you would realize that Benedict is not the pope, as he is a wolf leading the lambs to the slaughter.

[Nekrohol]

Benedict XVI, Zenit News story, Sept. 5, 2000: "We are in agreement that a Jew, and this

is true for believers of other religions, does not need to know or acknowledge Christ as

the Son of God in order to be saved"

[Nekrohol]

Benedict XVI, Address to Chief Rabbi of Rome, Jan. 16, 2006: "Distinguished Chief Rabbi, you were recently entrusted with the spiritual guidance of Romes Jewish Community; you have taken on this responsibility enriched by your experience as a scholar and a doctor who has shared in the joys and sufferings of a great many people. I offer you my heartfelt good wishes for your mission, and I assure you of my own and my

collaborators cordial esteem and friendship."

[Nekrohol]

Benedict XVI, Principles of Catholic Theology (1982), p. 198: "Nor is it possible, on the other hand, for him to regard as the only possible form and, consequently, as binding on all Christians the form this primacy has taken in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The symbolic gestures of Pope Paul VI and, in particular, his kneeling before the representative of the Ecumenical Patriarch [the schismatic Patriarch Athenagoras] were an attempt to express precisely this"

[Nekrohol]

Benedict XVI is the biggest denier of the Papacy in the world, you blind fool; how much of a blind apostate are you?

You're just another of millions of prime examples of just why the Vatican ll sect cannot be the Catholic Church; you're a complete apostate and you have no idea what the Church actually teaches, and you are rife with believing heretical and condemned doctrines.

You are what even the false "traditionalists" call Neo-"Catholics"; we call you Neo-Apostates.

[AureusVenerabilis]

Call me as you want...who is blind? I said it to Davecyco, I say it also to you: There is only one God, one true Catholic Church and one Holy Father I'll be loyal to.

And these things you say are apostasy...

[Nekrohol]

Yes, you really are blind, for the Church teaches that even someone who claims to be the Pope, should he become a manifest heretic, CEASES to be the Pope ipso facto, and that someone who is a heretic, CANNOT be a real Pope.

[davecyco]

I am certainly not.

[davecyco]

If you profess to be subject to Rome, you have already contracted the disease, which is heresy.

Sedevacantists do NOT reject the pope or the papacy at all, no matter how much you want to think they do.

They simply hold to the dogmatic truth that heretics are not Catholic, and hence recognize that a heretic cannot be pope, just as a non Catholic cannot be pope.

Sedes do not judge the Holy See.

St. Paul says that we must avoid heretics, knowing that they are condemned by THEIR OWN judgment.

[AureusVenerabilis]

I think that you sedevacationists don't consider Holy Father John Paul II. a "legal" Pope, but WHY? JPII was one of the greatest people in the history

[davecyco]

So does the SSPX have the same faith as Rome? IF they do, they are apostates, just like Rome, and if they do not, then WHY are they subject to the Vatican?

[Nekrohol]

Don't take "davecyco" seriously on the other things that he says: he's a heretical reed in the wind and a radical schismatic who follows a blind guide who's got no clue about anything.

He's right regarding Vatican ll and the last 5 heresiarchs, but he's dead wrong on his other completely illogical, ridiculous, and frankly, stupid positions, like, "only invincible ignorance excuses schism". Haha!

[AureusVenerabilis]

pure truth, nekrohol...

[Nekrohol]

Yes, he's a radical schismatic, but he's right as regards sedevacantism and antipope JPll (davecyco).

What are you, AureusVenerabilis? A (pardon the qualifications...) full-fledged Novus Ordinarian? Or perhaps a false "traditionalist"?

To really have an idea of just how evil and, quite frankly, satanic, antipope JPll was, just take look at what he did in Round 2 of the Assisi Pan-ecumenical gathering:

[AureusVenerabilis]

No, I am not Traditionalist and even not a member of Novus Ordo...no way...(I don't like all these schismatic and heretic groups) . I am Roman Catholic, no matter what the others say. But isn't it too courageous to call JPII "satanic" and "antipope"?

I know that the only true religion is christianity, but there should be some respect to other religions...not to participate on their feasts and so, but to respect. Do you understand what I mean?

And who are you, Nekrohol?

[Nekrohol]

lf you'e not a traditionalist then you're a mainstream "Catholic", a Novus Ordinarian...

JPll was indeed satanic and evil, even the more so since he knew Catholic doctrine very well but rejected it anyways.

l understand how you feel, but we cannot respect any other religion but the Real one, the Catholic religion; all other "religions" are false, man made and of the Devil, that's just the truth, the Devil is the author of false religions, you can't respect that one bit!

[priest008]

Novous ordo is not EVIL stop saying rubbish! Novous Ordo if celebrated as it should be is a perfecxt offering to God, I agree with you only if you state that there are priests who abused of the Vatican council II. For example Drums and rock mass are sacriligeous in a Church but just because the priest faces the people and says mass with vernacular there is nothing EVIL, read Vatican II ! Infact Vatican II never rid Latin Mass, it stated that Gregorian is to be kept in the highest respect!

[BrotherAlphonsusMary]

@Nekrohol You are wrong as well. You have separated yourself from the true church. Come back.

[Nekrohol]

@BrotherAlphonsusMary "He that hath ears to hear: let him hear."

"He that readeth let him understand."

You hear nothing nor understand nothing, because you're a heretic who believes in nothing. One of the reason for so many blind v-2 defenders like yourself is the massive ignorance that abounds today. You're an ignorant. You don't even know what the Church is nor what She teaches. The divine sword of anathema has already fallen upon you.

[Nekrohol]

lt looks like you don't know much about sedevacantism...you don't right?

[AureusVenerabilis]

I know something from the Internet and we have one man of that kind in Slovakia. And I repeat: I am not a nember of Novus Ordo

Where did you get it from that a man must be Traditionalist, and if he isn't, he is a member of NO?

[AureusVenerabilis]

And doesn't it sound heretic to say that JPII is an apostate? Nonsense, real nonsense... It sounds very heretic to me... And you think that Holy See is still in the state of "sede vacante" since the death of John XXIII? Pure heresy

[BrotherAlphonsusMary]

@AureusVenerabilis. Amen to that.

[priest008]

Nekrohol, judging by your comments it seems that you are suffering from a psychological effect called "Anal retention" where you don't want to go to the bathroom because you want to hang on to the shit you have. Sorry to be so rude, and in no way am I comparing the tridentine rite or teaching to shit. I am trying to say that you need to let go on certain things. I classify myself as a Catholic, not traditional nor Liberal but a Catholic!

[7userid]

I love just being able to listen to such harmonious sounds.....I think we spend too much time listening to the noisy,cahotic sounds of the news,bad music that it is nice to be able to click and hear this.

[crystalship42]

I think with all respect. to "Rule the World" before Maddona said. Had been one of the principal objectives of most of groups including social, political, religious...etc. Freemasons are supose to install a New Order...hmmm. Hitler was the same story. Muslims says everybody have to be Muslim and the main objective of Christianity is that "all living being" can get baptized, believe in the Gospel, be saved living under one Religion. Novo Ordo is old as history.

[crystalship42]

and chrislecker...when you says you're a "full monk" that means you already made your final vows are you a priest or a Friar? Or you still in formation.?

[crystalship42]

chrislecker...Posibly you can be right. Some orders includes what they called a 4th vow. Even when I'm not familiar with some of the Monastic Orders...most familiar with the franciscans and dominicans friers. I know from the biography of Brother Rafael Arnaiz.

[chrisklecker]

lol! History is a passion of ours and I can tell you, i have no idea where in history you can equate both Catholic Charity and Freemasonry unfortunately you have and I have a feeling you are unwilling to learn "actual" history over your own ideas. Oh well. You can't win them all.

[MrMichael446]

I thought Freemasons were a Christian sect some time ago?..are we that serious my brothers in Christ. PAX.

[chrisklecker]

Apparently it hits a nerve with certain people. Freemasonary according to some scholars predates Christianity. Unfortunately there are plenty of Conspiracy theories that hold very little water but due to the secrecy of the sect, it's impossible to know the truth. However the idea that freemasons were in control or had a part in Vatican II is just yet another bizarre theory thanks to those who haven't bothered to read the documents.

[chrisklecker]

Sorry but I'm afraid you are the one who is confused as I finally noticed your nickname here. Issues with Vatican II I see. Obviously you haven't really studied it then. I can recommend a few great books.

[davecyco]

Vatican II is apostasy pure and simple.  Get it right!

[chrisklecker]

I have to ask where you have derived this statement from. If you mean an apostasy from the current times then you are correct. V2 was a return to form of more traditional times around the time of Constantine. It was also a call to reform many of the abuses and correct many of the misinterpretations of contemporary methods. Unfortunately though most people only see V2 as a "they turned mass into a circus". This is wrong.

[davecyco]

Not only did Vatican II turn the Mass into a sacrilegious circus of doubtful validity, the documents contain heresy after heresy. Vatican II is not a Catholic Council.

And it's so-called 'popes' have been pushing these heresies and acting them out daily.

"Muslims together with us worship the one merciful God, mankind's judge on the last day!!!?!?!?!"

Seriously, this is not Catholic.

[chrisklecker]

The Catholic Church was founded on Jesus giving authority to the apostles and through Acts and Paul's Letter we see the blueprint of the Catholic Church. It clear you honestly have biased opinions that have no foundational basis whatsoever. I pray that God give you clarity. It's all there. Let's go of whatever passions have you at the moment.

[davecyco]

The Catholic Church is the one true Church of the one true God, She alone can define with infallibility the Divinely Revealed truths, in the Solemn Magisterium. Anything that contradicts these definitions is NOT Catholic, surely you can admit to this much. Do you agree with my statement? Yes or no is all I want form you at the moment.

[ronjenmar]

By the way you speak you probably are a member of the Society of St. Pius X. This society was excommunicated by the One Holy Catholic Apostolic Church. I suggest you study deeply the Vatican and you will see the truth. The description of "sacrilegious circus of doubtful validity+ smacks of propaganda. There is nothing sacrilegious about the mass because it does not go against God nor is it a circus because I don't see any horses nor clowns.

[davecyco]

SSPX!? I have nothing to do with those apostates!

[ronjenmar]

No. Apostasy is going against the catholic church. It is leaving it in favor of another religion or creating a new one despite being exposed to the truths of the Catholic Faith. The Society of St. Piux X is an example of pure apostasy. Quite simply put.

[davecyco]

SSPX is in communion with the non-Catholic Vatican; they are both apostate.

Do 'Chirstians' and Muslims worship the same God? THAT is apostasy.

[baughskeet]

What's funny is that you're here...ON YOUTUBE...trying to sound all apocalyptically knowledgeable instead of figuring out what really matters. Do you honestly think any of all this bullshit arguing is necessary?  You make yourself look like an idiot.

What is wrong with Novus Ordo? Also there really isn't such a thing as 3rd Order Cistercian, unless you mean a Lay Cistercian. I'm not that. I'm a full monk.

I just visited Stephansdom , the great cathedral from Wien.I was thrilled about the interior and the religious ceremony.I am orthodox but if you are a believer ,God gives you His gifts everywhere, with his great and endless Love

[IBERJEN]

Yhe most inspiring Church I've benn to is Notre Dame.

[ivonneviovy]

why? can you explain more about it?

[IBERJEN]

If you were to define "GOTHIC CATHEDRAL" Notre Dame would be the poster child.

[Anamixandre]

Even a convinced atheist (as I am) can be moved by these etheral voices

[Mushin001]

Atheist or not, you are more than you think

Beautiful...Nice. I think this Order of Cistercians, they make a 4th Vow of silence. They just speak during common prayer and recreational moments, that's it. I think if we try not to talk too much stupidity and non-sense stuff, possibly this world can be healthier and we can have a better life..:-/. This is nice :-)

[ddtoots]

very true. i ahve thought this too.

but then i was living in argentina where they talk talk (at least in the village i lived in!)They couldnt be alone for more than 5 minutes. And it was nice . and then i thought, well im glad there are soo many different types of people. i like the diversity. but yes..of course i agree..in general about the quiet. and with that..i am going to try to shut my mouth more today!

[chrisklecker]

There is no such thing as a Vow of Silence as the "4th Vow". An individual can make such a vow before God and His Saints, however such a vow was never a part of the Benedictine Rite.

[suoziming88]

I'm sorry but to me it sounds just boring. They all sing the same vocal line, there's no background. Where's the harmony? It's raw, it's not developed. Probably you have to be very stressed out to enjoy that kind of music. But I'd prefer silence myself.

[Th3DooM]

this is gregorian chant in his pure form

"psalmony"

[Britainrulesthewaves]

It is not music but prayer. thats why there is no harmony

[chrisklecker]

Gregorian Chant IS music, but it does not conform to Western style as it predates the western influences of music. If you listen to rather old medieval music you will see the same "one voice" pattern. Gregorian Chant is also prayer but let's not discount one for another. You are singing your prayers to God. ;) Take it from another Cistercian. ;)

[papist77]

Just great:)

[NotifyNavin]

Its wonderful. Out of this world...

[PaniLusia]

please, don't turn this into Christianity vs. islam war. Pray, or just enjoy beautiful music.

[Warthread]

[AnesSt11]

cool^^

[nldekker]

And oddly enough, none of them are calling for death or jihad. Oh wait, that's the muslims...

[danielromano123]

phantomdeopera didnt need to be so hard, but he is right about the islam... you really demonstrate your ignorance about the muslims, taking all of them by suicide bombers who only thinks about jihad and calling for death... seek for the sufis, the derviches and a lot more in the muslisms and maybe youll change your mind about them...

[EricBarbman]

Total bullshit. Coran is full of hate and death threats for whomever isn't muslim. For Islam, non muslim world is known as dar el arb : the house of war. War is the response and retribution to the infidels. Funnily enough, if muslims happen to rule a country, but the population follows another religion, the land is still called dar el arb. "Tolerant muslims" are considered apostates in the muslim world, or are just practicing the taqqiah -lying about Islam-.

[Janusha]

I dunno.. I just know that there isnt a proper muslimm country in the world. All muslim dominant countries are either fucked beyond belief or worse. Surely they must see that their ways dont quite work. yet they want to force it upon europe.

[gummibaerchenmap]

ever thought of saudi-arabia?

women are not allowed to drive cars there.

women get killd for not doing what there husband says. the amount of rapesis as high as nowhere else in the world.

[wisermaw]

I knew a general from that area, and it was interesting what he had to say. How about the honor killings (what a tragedy)and the women being treating like sub humans. Did you know that we cannot send anything that has Christmas showing...not cards or gift wrap? There are probably good people of that faith, but the radical Muslims are not godly, just brutes! I feel sorry for the women and children who have to live this life.

[eamonreillydotcom]

Great stuff. Sounds exactly today like it would have a hundred years ago.

[gspaulsson]
