[@dominickbundy6429]

From what I gather here in your response to me is all primarily based on faith. This is something I simply don’t have as one of the few definitions the dictionary defines faith is ... a belief in something without proof., I am the kind of person who needs proof and evidence. .there are many out there who believe in ghosts. I don’t unless I someday might encounter one. And then I still will question its existence. As well as the mediums who claim to talk to the dead. And many other supernatural experiences that some have occurred, unless it happens to me. Then it’s not so. This is why I go with my heart and gut whe it comes to the after life. Because there was no life I had before being born and I feel the same applies afterwards. And I feel very comfortable with that. The human ego is a very frail thing. Same goes for making who believe that our loved ones who passed on are in heaven , watching over us, which I don’t believe for one second. When your dead your dead it’s all over. Sorry but I guess I will always be a questioning skeptic. , anything else I feel are nothing more than ones imagination and a state of mind many of us allow ourselves to endure because of ego. Enough of my rant. It is what it is .

[@SilverBullionSteve]

Life is a test and if God split the sky tomorrow and revealed himself to the world, some people would still doubt his existence but those who would believe in him after witnessing such a thing, would do so out of fear of going to Hell and not from genuine love for God. This is the way I see it at least.

I am a Roman Catholic and I wish to become a Benedictine monk a Catholic priest

[@Ggb427neo]

[@robertj.4152]

If you have the calling for vocation, pray on it. I am in formation to be an Anglican deacon then priest. I was going to join a Catholic seminary, but then God told me no.

[@bbertlechadores8667]

[@lukeskywalker3789]

There are different ways to pray. If someone prays differently... can that someone not join a monastery? He could only stand there through everything & not say a word because to him that would be pretending & lying for thats not how he prays. It would be a waste of time until he had personal time afterwards for real prayer.

[@Steampunksaly]

Real prayer? What a harsh judgment you make. Their prayers are just as real as you perceive yours to be

[@johnjay7255]

Nice Post-VII barrenness of a chapel

[@otherstar1]

That's funny, because the Abbey Church was built in 1957.

[@robertusthemac]

Yeah, and what's with the fluorescent lights?

[@otherstar1]

Where? The sacristy? The Abbey interior? Those are the only places with fluorescent lights. The sacristy doesn't have a lot of windows so the florescent lights are very necessary if you want to get anything done in the sacristy. The main floor of the Abbey, and the ground floor have fluorescent lights in the hallways because that is the where the aged and infirm monks live (it's a nursing-home of sorts) and the lights are bright to help them avoid falls.

[@RezaChity-G]

@@otherstar1 Reminds me of Saint Vincent's Archabbey in Latrobe, they replaced their altar in the 50s.

[@otherstar1]

@@RezaChity-G very cool! The monastery attached to that Church was built in the 1920s, but the original planned Church never got built because of the depression, so to celebrate the Centennial of their founding (as a Daughterhouse of St. Vincent's), they build the Church (which really makes Michael John's comment above seem ignorant because the Church was completed while Pope Pius XII was still the Pope.

[@stevegranillo582]

Interesting..no monks of color…seems in the various pictures of the monastery and their supporters, it is strictly a Caucasian environment..makes me wonder about this place.

[@dashaunl1110]

2:20 you see one there at this time stamp 1:42 and a black priest at this time on the right.

[@DaniShimon]

There was no lunch?

[@dominickbundy6429]

This presentation seems so ridged and strict with a cult like atmosphere.How would one Keep their sanity doing the same rituals everyday? ,Without slight change and deviation to the daily routine.. Just wondering that’s all.

[@alfredhitchcock45]

So you think that an ordinary person's life is not routine as well?

[@dominickbundy6429]

mel saint yep!

[@dominickbundy6429]

By comparison to what this is about.yes,

[@gadoladonai8296]

A cult is a corruption of the Catholic faith, for us Catholics Christ is really and truly present in the Eucharist and it is he who sustains such a disciplined life.

[@dominickbundy6429]

Gadol Adonai The presence of Christ is a state of mind that one invites themselves to believe. There is no physical or visual evidence to indicate other wise. Hence to me appears cult like. I have no doubt that Christ at one time existed. And had a great positive effluence on many. But being raised Catholic myself.I always question so much what this faith. Is about, has to offer. Other than faith. Which is defined as having beliefs without proof..
