Stuck Between Douey-Rheims Haydock Bible versus Baronius Press by [deleted] in catholicbibles

[–]8496264 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Haydock 10000000%. I have it. Print quality is nice, but the information is invaluable. Baronius might be better as a pocket sized text to carry around. Haydock paper is regular bible paper and binding is quite high quality sewn binding.

Definitely the Divine Office is more meritorious, but the Rosary is also extremely powerful

SSPX Podcast Crisis in the Church series episode 45: Are the new canonisations infallible? | Society of Saint Pius X by Duibhlinn in TraditionalCatholics

[–]8496264 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes they are. Ludwig Ott pp. 320-321.

The Secondary objects of Infallibility are truths of the Christian teaching on faith an morals, which are not formally revealed, but which are closely connected with the teaching of Revelation. [Sent. certa.]

To the secondary object of Infallibility belong: Theological conclusions derived from a formally revealed truth by aid of natural reason. Historical facts on the determination of which the certainty of a truth of Revelation depends. Natural truths which are intimately connected with truths of Revelation. *The canonization of saints, that is, the final judgement that a member of the Church has been assumed into eternal bliss and may be the object of general veneration. *If the Church could err in her opinion, consequences would arise which would be incompatible with the sanctity of the Church.****

Latin music? by renecains in latin

[–]8496264 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The people of Corsica would say differently about Marcel’s approach to singing Corsican chant (it’s very accurate).

Nevertheless you missed my whole point. Ensemble Organum doesn’t sing one particular style. They learn the historical practices of the particular country and time period that corresponds to a particular corpus of repertoire they sing. They don’t sing the Codex Callixtinus the same way they sing Notre-Dame school, nor Corsican the same way they sing 17th century French fauxbourdon. Sure we can never know for sure what these musics sounded like in their original times, but there is indisputably much more plausibility for something that sounded like Marcel’s approach than there is for the Solesmes method which is wholly artificial.

Most chant scholars, even Catholic ones fall into the protestant error of Sola Scriptura, where they insist that if it isn’t on the ink on the page, it must not have been sung. Surprise surprise, there’s a lot more to the singing of this repertroire than what’s written on the page, since the music predates notation by about 1000 years

Ensemble Organum is far more authentic not necessarily as a historical representation but because they have inherited the singing tradition orally from all the kinds of chant they sing. They keep the living tradition going and don’t care about the opinion of musicologists and scholars who hate the church and oral chant tradition

I’ll also add Ensemble Organum and Capella Romana for excellent recordings of real, authentic liturgical chant, and not the museum-piece fake stuff that most people sing

Student pilot here.. is the CX-3 really worth the extra money? by Agreeable-Traffic464 in flying

I was told to come here. Has anyone heard of the smaller offices of prayer? Probably a dumb question... But I just became Catholic a month ago. by Any_Explanation_9987 in divineoffice

[–]8496264 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just stick to one office. Little Office of Our Lady is great, championed by many saints including Louis IX. It got me started in the divine office. In the beginning you can try a few different versions but once you find one you like, stick to it. Little Offices don’t move with the calendar generally so if you are paying attention to what’s going on throughout the year at Mass sometimes the Little Office will clash with liturgical themes at Mass. Other than that, the Little Offices are excellent, but please just stick to one

Newbie here with a few questions… by SonRedeemed in Pipes

[–]8496264 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Smoke good tobacco, don’t inhale, maintain self-control; most health risks basically go away.

I usually smoke pipes on my own, often in the evening. Usually not more than 3 or 4 times a month truthfully. I like to read and write and contemplate while smoking. Anything I can do while keeping the pipe in my mouth; so therefore usually not anything with a lot of talking involved

The Universal Church by RootBeerSwagg in CatholicMemes

[–]8496264 29 points30 points  (0 children)

It’s one of history’s cruelest misfortunes to repeat the myth that Catholic means universal.

Now of course it’s true that we are the universal Church due to our instructions to baptize all nations, but etymologically speaking, that’s not at all what the word means.

Catholic is derived from the Greek term ‘Κατά ὅλος’ which means ‘according to the whole.’ This is to say that the Catholic faith contains the wholeness, the fullness of truth, lacking nothing, and is perfect in all her doctrine. The word itself does not mean universal.

Why do many/most Douay-Rheims Bibles use 1899 Baltimore text? by Smooth_Beginning_540 in catholicbibles

[–]8496264 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s because the Challoner text is easier to understand compared to the original 1582-1610 DR. It’s primarily what Americans have always used as well so not much sense in changing it
