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!

    website yourself or did you hire someone to do it for you?
    Plz respond as I’m looking to create my own blog and
    would like to know where u got this from. cheers

  8. Hi there I am so grateful I found your website,
    I really found you by accident, while I was searching
    on Askjeeve for something else, Regardless I am here

  10. I don’t know whether it’s just me or if perhaps everybody else encountering problems with your blog.
    It appears as if some of the written text within your content are running off the
    screen. Can somebody else please comment and let me know if this is happening to them too?
    This might be a issue with my web browser because I’ve had this
    happen previously. Cheers

  11. I think what you said made a lot of sense. However, consider this, suppose you were to write a killer
    headline? I am not suggesting your content isn’t good, but suppose you
    added something that grabbed a person’s attention? I mean Holy See – Bryanna Vs The World
    is kinda plain. You should glance at Yahoo’s front page and note how they create article titles to get viewers
    interested. You might add a video or a pic or two to get people excited about what you’ve got to say.

    In my opinion, it would make your website a little bit more interesting.

  12. I used to be suggested this web site through my cousin. I am
    no longer sure whether this put up is written by him
    as nobody else recognise such unique about my
    problem. You are incredible! Thank you!

  13. My coder is trying to convince me to move to
    .net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the
    costs. But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using WordPress on several websites for
    about a year and am anxious about switching to another platform.
    I have heard very good things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can import all my
    wordpress content into it? Any kind of help would be
    really appreciated!

  15. I blog frequently and I really thank you for your
    content. This article has truly peaked my interest.
    I am going to take a note of your site and keep checking for new information about once a week.
    I subscribed to your Feed too.

  16. Wir empfehlen während deiner Shopping Tour durch die Boulevards auch mal da kannste hinspucken zu biegen und neben anderen die Abzweigungen zu nehmen. Die engen Gässchen sind schön schattig und machen oft mehr Spaß als die großen, auf denen reichlich Menschen unterwegs sind.

    Die Passeig d’es Born ist die Flaniermeile von Palma de Mallorca und verbindet die Kathedrale eine der Altstadt.
    Die Straße ist von schattigen Alleebäumen umsäumt
    und sichtbar werden viele Bänke, auf denen du mal eine Verschnaufpause einlegen kannst.
    Die Geschäfte gehören eher zur gehobenen Preisklasse,
    du findest aber auch die gängigen Ketten, wie H&M und
    Zara. Dazu stoßen viele Bars und Restaurants, in denen du wunderbar draußen sitzen kannst.
    Die Passeig d’es Born erinnert stark an das bekanntesten Sehenswürdigkeiten in Barcelona – die Ramblas – nur etwas kleiner
    und gemütlicher. Gelegentlich findet auch ein Buchmarkt oder eine Kunstveranstaltung statt.

    Lohnt sich auf jeden Fall für einen Spaziergang!

  17. Do you have a spam issue on this blog; I also am a blogger, and I was wondering
    your situation; we have created some nice procedures and we are looking to swap strategies with others, please
    shoot me an email if interested.

  18. Wonderful beat ! I would like to apprentice whilst you amend your web site, how could i subscribe
    for a weblog website? The account helped me a acceptable deal.

    I had been tiny bit familiar of this your broadcast offered brilliant transparent idea

  19. I have been surfing on-line greater than three hours
    nowadays, but I by no means found any attention-grabbing article like yours.
    It’s pretty value sufficient for me. In my view,
    if all webmasters and bloggers made good content material as you did, the internet will be a lot
    more useful than ever before.

  20. 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.
    I’ve been looking for a plug-in like this for quite some time and was hoping maybe you would have some experience with something 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.

  21. I am extremely impressed along with your
    writing skills and also with the structure on your weblog.
    Is that this a paid theme or did you modify it yourself? Either way keep up the excellent quality writing,
    it is rare to peer a nice weblog like this one these days..

  22. This is a really good tip particularly to those new to the blogosphere.

    Short but very accurate information… Thank you
    for sharing this one. A must read post!

  23. Hello would you mind letting me know which webhost you’re working with?
    I’ve loaded your blog in 3 completely different web
    browsers and I must say this blog loads a lot quicker then most.
    Can you suggest a good hosting provider at a
    reasonable price? Thank you, I appreciate it!
