Holy See

Hey fellow adventurers! In an earlier post I promised to elaborate and (attempt to) explain the Holy See. It’s a bit complicated so I’ll give a brief explanation and link a must-read site and a must-watch video. They’re super quick and very interesting!

Very simply: The Holy See is the government of the Catholic church. The pope both rules over Vatican City and controls the Holy See. But don’t get them confused. The Holy See owns property all around the world (mostly churches), and Vatican City is just the most famous. The Holy See often involves itself with international issues, including, but not limited to issues regarding human rights, peace and conflict prevention, poverty eradication and development, environmental protection, and inter-religious understanding. Though we can’t forget its ties to Catholicism, since the Holy See is also in charge of making laws for the Catholic church.

You can read a little bit more about it here, and its relations to the United States (I apologize if anyone outside of the United States feels ostracized since that is never my intention):

Or you can watch the YouTube video down below. I love cute, little informational videos like this. I highly recommend you watch the whole thing, but if you really want to skip the history part since that was my last blog post, skip to 1:38.

By the way if you’ve been leaving me questions, I’m sorry that I don’t respond to them very often. To be honest, I have a hard time getting to them because I must filter out at least 1,000 spam comments every week. Spam containing links is most of what I see. And I actually don’t get that many questions about the content of the blog. The question that comes up most often is what program I use. I use Word Press through the site where my father-in-law bought the web address bryannabartel.com. However, it’s very frustrating doing it that way because even though I do pay for Word Press through the website, Word Press acts like I’m just another blogger using the free version. The second most popular question is about my layout. It just came with Word Press. And the last most popular question is whether it’s difficult/time consuming to write a blog. For me, that depends on the topic. Music and food blogs are my favorite because most of the time is spent listening to music and eating food, so no, not difficult. But some topics require more research, and it honestly feels like I’m back in college again writing a short essay sometimes. Depending on what’s happening in my life, it can be difficult to write 3 blog posts a week. So far, I’ve only missed one blog though. I do have the snacks, uneaten, that I was planning on reviewing for that post so later on I might just double post one of these days. And while I’m talking about myself (which I never do), I might as well tell anyone who doesn’t know me, I’m pregnant. When the baby is due in July, I’m going to try really hard to keep up this blog but I can’t promise that I won’t miss some days. This is my first kid, and I really can’t say how blogging and being a mother will go. Plenty of mothers do it so maybe I’ll still be publishing 3 posts a week. If you’ve read this far, thank you, and that’s my little heads up that this blog might get even more sporadic later this year. Well that’s all for today’s post! Thank you so much for reading for my blog! And as always, until our next adventure!

  1. Awesome issues here. I’m very glad to see your article.
    Thanks so much and I’m having a look forward to contact
    you. Will you kindly drop me a e-mail?

  2. Die Rolle der Polizei ist eines der Grundprobleme seit Langem in den Partyhochburgen. Anwohner beklagen, die Beamten würden sich
    kaum zeigen, wenn’s rund geschätzt Bars und Clubs heiß hergeht.

    Es scheint so, als steckten die Behörden untrennbar Interessenkonflikt: Einerseits müssen sie geltende Regeln durchsetzen, andererseits wollen sie
    den Touristen gegenüber keine Härte zeigen. Denn sie bringen das Geld nach Mallorca
    und Co., mit ihnen möchte man es sich nicht verscherzen. Doch Tourismusminister Iago Negueruela nimmt genau das nun in Kauf.
    Er spricht offen von unzivilisierten, asozialen Urlaubern, die die Balearen nicht rumzicken wollten. Es wirkt so, als kämen die Feier-Exzesse vom Freitag dem Minister gerade
    recht, um ein Argument unverheiratet, derart aggressiv gegen Partyurlauber
    zu wettern. Denn seit Langem betont die Balearen-Regierung
    schon, dass sie lieber mehr sogenannte Qualitätstouristen auf
    ihren Inseln hätte. Also Reisende mit gut gefülltem
    Geldbeutel, die sich stets gut benehmen. Diese Urlauber hätte wahrscheinlich jede Urlaubsregion gerne – doch es nicht eintreten genügend von ihnen für alle.
    Es existieren halt auch Partytouristen. Und Mallorca hat die vergangenen 50 Jahre mit diesem Tourismusmodell gutes Geld verdient.
    Jetzt zu sagen: “Wir wollen euch nicht länger, ihr seid unzivilisiert und asozial”, ist unfair.
    Denn Partyurlauber ist auch nicht gleich Partyurlauber.
    Diejenigen, die tatsächlich beim Feiern über die Stränge schlagen, machen nur wenige
    Prozent der Gesamtzahl der Urlauber aus. Die Regionalregierung argumentiert: Man schließe
    die Partyhochburgen, um einen größeren Virusausbruch zu verhindern zum Beispiel die Wirtschaft zu schützen, die vom Tourismus abhängt.
    Doch das ist zu kurz gedacht. Denn nun stehen die Wirte in den Partyzentren vorm Ruin. Sie mussten schon die Corona-Zwangspause
    von drei Monaten durchstehen; jetzt fällt für sie auch noch die langersehnte Hauptsaison ins Wasser, die ohnehin nur kurz ausgefallen wäre.
    Den Balearen mangelt es nicht an Vorschriften,
    um Saufgelage einzudämmen. In den vergangenen Jahren kamen immer neue Regeln dazu.

    Doch die Regierung muss sie auch umsetzen. Nötig ist ein entschiedenes
    Durchgreifen der Polizei, kein totales Aus
    für Ballermann & Co.

  3. Great post. I was checking continuously this blog
    and I’m impressed! Very helpful info particularly the last part :
    ) I care for such information much. I was seeking this certain information for
    a long time. Thank you and good luck.

  4. What i don’t realize is in truth how you are no longer really much more well-liked than you
    might be now. You are very intelligent. You already know thus significantly when it comes to this matter, made me individually believe
    it from numerous various angles. Its like men and women aren’t fascinated until
    it’s one thing to do with Lady gaga! Your individual stuffs excellent.
    At all times maintain it up!

  5. Your style is so unique compared to other people I have read stuff from.

    Many thanks for posting when you have the opportunity, Guess I will just
    bookmark this page.

  6. An impressive share! I have just forwarded this onto a coworker who was conducting
    a little research on this. And he actually ordered me breakfast because I
    discovered it for him… lol. So let me reword this….
    Thanks for the meal!! But yeah, thanx for spending some time to discuss this topic here on your
    site.

  7. Hello! I know this is kinda off topic but I was wondering if you knew where I could get
    a captcha plugin for my comment form? I’m using the same blog platform as yours and I’m having difficulty finding one?
    Thanks a lot!

  8. Hello there, You’ve done a great job. I’ll definitely digg it and personally recommend to
    my friends. I’m sure they will be benefited from this web site.

  9. Salomon hat deshalb ein weniger aggressives Stollenprofil gewählt und zudem das Design weniger
    farbintensiv gestaltet. Dank Contagrip sollen Sie mit diesem Nordic walking Schuh eine Mischung aus Dichte, Verbundstoffen und Stollengeometrie erfahren. Außerdem erlaubt diese
    Kombination unschwer Gewicht, welches sich auf langen Laufstrecken bezahlt macht.
    Mit 4,3 von 5 Sternen (bei 6 Rezensionen), scheinen auch es
    gibt mehr Damen mit diesem Paar Schuhe sehr zufrieden zu sein. Bewertung: Sportlicher Allrounder,
    welcher sich auch für die City eignet. Das Obermaterial ist aus
    Mesh und das textile Innenfutter ist stabil und komfortabel zugleich.
    Eine EVA Zwischensohle sorgt für gute Dämpfung
    und die Laufsohle bietet genug Grip bei rutschigem oder
    glattem Untergrund. Wer also auch gerne mal auf Steinigem Untergrund walken geht
    oder sehr sportlich Wandert der ist mit diesem Outdoor Sportschuh von Salomon bestens beraten. Bewertung:
    Die spezielle Einlegesohle stabilisiert den Fuß auch bei langen Sporteinheiten. Diesen Schuh gibt es in sehr vielen Farbvarianten, so dass für jeden Geschmack die passende Farbe
    beiwohnen sollte. Wasserfest ist der Schuh außerdem auch ncoh und die Amazon Bewertungen sprechen intern.

  10. What i don’t realize is if truth be told how you are now not actually much more neatly-preferred than you may be now.
    You’re so intelligent. You know thus considerably in relation to this subject, produced me personally believe it from so many varied angles.
    Its like women and men aren’t involved unless it’s one thing to
    accomplish with Girl gaga! Your own stuffs great.
    Always maintain it up!

  11. I’m really impressed with your writing skills and also with the layout on your weblog.
    Is this a paid theme or did you modify it yourself? Either way keep up the excellent quality writing, it’s rare
    to see a nice blog like this one today.

  12. We are a group of volunteers and starting a new scheme in our community.

    done a formidable process and our whole neighborhood will
    probably be grateful to you.

    Really.. many thanks for starting this up.
    This site is one thing that is needed on the internet, someone with a little originality!

  14. The other day, while I was at work, my sister stole my iPad and tested to see if it can survive a twenty five foot drop,
    just so she can be a youtube sensation. My iPad is now destroyed and she has 83 views.

    I know this is entirely off topic but I had to share it with
    someone!
