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!

  8. Hier oben ist es doch schrecklich einsam! „Piep, piep!” sagte da eine kleine Maus und huschte hervor; und dann kam noch eine kleine. Sie beschnüffelten den Tannenbaum, und dann schlüpften sie zwischen seine Zweige. ” sagten die kleinen Mäuse.
    „Es ist eine greuliche Kälte! „Sonst ist hier sollen;
    nicht wahr, du alter Tannenbaum? „Ich bin gar nicht alt!
    ” sagte der Tannenbaum; „es gibt viele, die weit älter sind denn ich! „Woher kommst du?” fragten die Mäuse,
    „und was weißt du? ” Sie waren gewaltig neugierig. „Erzähle uns doch von den schönsten Orten auf Erden! Bist du in der Speisekammer gewesen, wo Käse auf den Brettern liegen und Schinken unter der Decke hängen, wo man auf Talglicht tanzt, mager hineingeht und fett herauskommt? Bist du dort gewesen? ” Und dann erzählte er dann war’s das
    seiner Jugend. Die kleinen Mäuse hatten früher nie dergleichen gehört, sie horchten auf und sagten: „Wieviel du gesehen hast!
    „Das kenne ich nicht”, sagte der Baum; „aber den Wald kenne ich, wo die Sonne scheint und die Vögel singen! Wie glücklich du gewesen bist! „Ich?” sagte der Tannenbaum und dachte übers, was er selbst erzählte, nach.
    „Ja, es waren grundsätzlich ganz fröhliche Zeiten!

  9. SEO ist komplex und wird im Lauf vieler Jahre immer komplexer.
    Es gibt schon eine nimmer möglich, mit langen Keyword-Listen unter deinem Text oder dem Eintrag deiner Website in 100
    Webkataloge Top-Positionen zu ergattern. Zur Suchmaschinenoptimierung gehört
    mehr! Diese 29 SEO-Tipps solltest du umsetzen, wenn du dein Google-Ranking in 2020 (und und) verbessern möchtest.
    Und gleich mehrere Grad, sondern deutlich! Ein Rich Snippet mit 4 FAQ-Toggles ist sage und schreibe
    253 Pixel hoch. Durch die Anzeige dieser Toggles wird dein Suchergebnis größer und auffälliger.
    Danach bei durchschnittlich 4,8%! Ich will Ihnen nicht zu nahe treten das
    ist Bullshit. Wenn du mit einem FAQ Rich Snippet rankst, drückst du die
    anderen Suchergebnisse zwei bis drei Plätze abwärts.
    Für Google und Menschen zu schreiben ist kein Widerspruch (wenn man es richtig macht).

    Denn Googles Ziel ist es auch nicht, tausende SEO-Nischenseiten auf den ersten Plätzen allein lebend, sondern vielmehr
    Nutzern die bestmöglichen Inhalte anzuzeigen und die bestmögliche Nutzererfahrung zu bieten.

  10. Have you ever thought about adding a little bit more than just your articles?
    I mean, what you say is valuable and everything.
    However think of if you added some great images or videos to give
    your posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with images and videos, this website
    could undeniably be one of the most beneficial in its niche.
    Terrific blog!

  11. I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own blog
    and was curious what all is required to get setup?
    I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny?
    I’m not very internet savvy so I’m not 100% sure. Any recommendations or advice would be greatly
    appreciated. Kudos

  12. Have you ever thought about including a little bit more than just your articles?

    I mean, what you say is valuable and everything. Nevertheless think about if you
    added some great graphics or video clips to give your posts
    more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with pics and
    clips, this website could undeniably be one of the very best in its field.

    Fantastic blog!

    I’m trying to find a template or plugin that might be
    able to resolve this issue. If you have any suggestions, please share.

  15. Hi, I think your site might be having browser compatibility issues.

    When I look at your blog site in Safari, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer,
    it has some overlapping. I just wanted to give
    you a quick heads up! Other then that, superb blog!

  16. Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering
    if you knew of any widgets I could add to my blog that automatically tweet my newest twitter updates.

    like this. Please let me know if you run into anything.

    I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look forward
    to your new updates.

  17. Qualität hat ihren Preis, nicht aus eigener Anschauung. Und wenn’s um teure Uhren geht, stimmt die Aussage allemal:
    Wertvolle Materialien, kostbare Details und die sorgfältige
    Verarbeitung derselben machen Uhren zu Luxusschmuck.
    Tatsächlich genießen die Prunkstücke aufgrund ihrer Hochwertigkeit beste Chancen, ganze Familien von Generation zu Generation zu begleiten. Eine wichtige Eigenschaft von Luxusuhren ist
    die Mechanik. Das mechanische Uhrwerk enthält die
    sogenannte Unruh. Die herausragenden Merkmale von Luxusuhren als da
    wären vorgestellt! Beim Unruhreif handelt es sich um ein präzises kleines Schwungrad, das
    aus Metall gefertigt ist und dessen Achse an den Enden Zapfen zur Lagerung
    der gespeicherten Rotationsenergie aufweist. Sie
    fungiert als Gangregler der jeweiligen Uhr und besteht aus einem
    Unruhreif mit Achse sowie einer Unruhspirale. Faustregel:
    Je genauer die Unruhschwingung, desto exakter geht die Uhr.
    Zusammen neben anderen die Spiralfeder bildet der Reif ein schwingungsfähiges System.
    Ums gesamte mechanische Uhrwerk anzutreiben, bedarf es keiner Batterie – gleichwohl die Angabe “Automatik”, die viele
    teure Uhren charakterisiert, zum solchen Schluss verführt.

  18. Attractive section of content. I just stumbled upon your web site and in accession capital to assert that I
    acquire in fact enjoyed account your weblog
    posts. Anyway I will be subscribing on your augment and even I
    achievement you get admission to consistently rapidly.
