I'm happy...I am atheist....

[OCist33]

@Sariondil - Never mind: God loves you anyways :o)

[ThayStudio]

Is this buddhist "chanting" music?

Need an answer, quick!

[OCist33]

@ThayStudio - No, we're Christian i.e. Roman Catholic monks - the chant is about the Holy Spirit, it's the Introitus of Pentecost, 50 days after the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. God bless you!

[PhiloHerodotus]

No, ThayStudio, these are trappist monks. They are a roman catholic religious order that practices cloister, a discipline of silence and they stop to chant 7 times a day.

[OCist33]

@PhiloHerodotus - Actually we're not Trappists (OCSO = Ordo Cisterciensis Strictioris Observantiæ), but Cistercians of the Common Observance (OCist = Ordo Cisterciensis - "the original" ;o))) - but we're one Cistercian family... PAX, fr. Kilian

[HighDrummer1]

I am no longer a man of faith, but it wont stop me indulging in beautiful religious music

@Sariondil If you think about it, your declaration acknowledges the existence of God....Who still loves you.

I love the when people just throw the word atheist out not really understanding what the true extent of the definition of the word is. Same with the word Christian. It just amazes me

[JeremyHill89]

@Sariondil It seems to me like you have a good understanding of vocabulary and definition, so why not take some English courses where you live for grammar and sentence structure??

[Sariondil]

@JeremyHill89 I know what to say,but dunno how to say... I can't understand me,cause i can't say it well.. :)

[JeremyHill89]

@Sariondil Your views are richous and true in there own way.and seeing as your English isn't too well, i will give you a little lesson here. "believe in whatever you want,I don't mind." being that you are still a very young child, and you are not of the same faith as us, you should not word that in such a way. You make it seem as though you are giving us "Permission" or your "Blessings" that we do not request nor require. Proper sentence format and grammar is very important in English.

[Sariondil]

@taxfundi Oh,no,you didn't understand me. I told it just because i believe in our own lifes and not in God. So we are creators of our own Destiny and i just wanted to tell you my view as same as you told me your own. By the way,srry for my terrible English,i am 16,and from country far away from UK ;D But ok,I am not agaist you or any religion,believe in whatever you want,I don't mind. :-) One of my best friend believe in God too and i still like him.Another friend believe in Scandinavia Gods. :)

[taxfundi]

@Sariondil Trust me, my words carried only kindness and compassion. Please, no-one really cares to change the way you live. In fact, no-one cares at all. I was merely giving you strength - which was thrown back in my face with a nasty comment. Go forth, rude one. Be gone.

Hi, could you please tell me if the Cistercians had monasteries in Medieval Spain? If so, can you direct me where to go to research this? What year or timeline would it have been. Thank you so much for posting this beautiful music. God bless you.
