There are some interesting points that she makes that ought to be discussed in more detail that contradict Christianity , and one ought to remember to address these points respectfully. (Oprah: 1:00) "One of the mistakes that human beings make is that there is only one way to live, and that we don't accept that there are diverse ways of being in the world and there are millions of ways to be a human being and many paths to what you call God. That her path might be something else and when she gets there she might call it the light." There is truth to the initial portion of Oprah's statement. Christians today do indeed struggle with acceptance of other's viewpoints, but it does not necessarily imply that their viewpoint is incorrect. Two different issues are at hand here, how does one balance what they believe to be true with the reality that it implies others do not hold that same truth? It is doubtful that Oprah doesn't believe what she is discussing is truth as well, and if someone approached her

I have to admit, I wasn’t sure if I would really be able to get into this epic journey after reading the back of the book. It all sounded too strange. Like many who have chosen to read this book, I too hoped it would change my life. Many lessons were both taught and learned in this adventure following a young man from having terrible nightmares to his many encounters with the unexpected past, present, and future, to his final days of becoming an enlightened warrior. Some of the extraordinary stories encountered on this path to enlightenment I believe not to be true, while others of seeming importance and grandness, I choose to believe. That is why I feel this book strikes a cord with every reader and impacts each in a specific and meaningful way. Way of the Peaceful Warrior made me reflect on many, many aspects and questions of life. Some, light and raw; questions and thoughts never before proposed in my mind while others were deeper and more philosophical; questions and thoughts that have reverberated over and over.

Bibliotheca Schoenbergensis: An Exhibition from the Collection of Lawrence J. Schoenberg Books of Hours The medieval Book of Hours evolved out of the monastic cycle of prayer which divided the day into eight segments, or "hours": Matins, Lauds, Prime, Terce, Sext, Nones, Compline, and Vespers. By the early fifteenth century, the format of the Book of Hours had developed to satisfy the demands of private, as opposed to communal, devotion. These portable books are smaller in format than their monastic forebears, designed for use by individuals, with a liturgical system somewhat less complicated than monastic liturgy and more "user-friendly." A Book of Hours invariably begins with a liturgical calendar, listing feast days in chronological order along with a complicated method of calculating the date of Easter. The seven Penitential Psalms are usually included as well, and additional prayers (devoted to particular saints or personal issues) according to the desires and needs of the owner.

91. The Artz Hours Complete digital facsimile of a 15th-century French Book of Hours for the Use of Le Mans. http://littlepeople.net/artzhours/

The Book of Hours was by far the most popular book of the Middle Ages. The increased piety of lay people and the rise of the urban middle class in the 13th-15th centuries led to a great demand for these personal devotional books, which were not only tools of religiosity, but symbols of wealth as well. Many of these Books of Hours survive from the Middle Ages, treasured over the centuries as devotional tools, family heirlooms, and beautiful works of art. I have been unbelievably lucky to have access to a 15th Century Book of Hours that belongs to Oberlin College Library's Special Collections, known as the Artz Hours after the donor, Frederick B. Artz. Here you will find a digital facsimile of this bookyou can look through the book page by page. Artz Hours Homepage Artz Hours Images Topics About the Project ...

A Note on the Book of Hours of Catherine of Cleves Book of Hours of Catherine of Cleves New York, Pierpont Morgan Gallery. M. 945 and M. 917 Northern Netherlands (Utrecht), c. 1440 Scribe: One hand for text and rubric (anonymous) Painter: One hand, the Master of Catherine of Cleves Pergament. The individual page measures 192 x 130 mm The Book of Hours of Catherine of Cleves has been described in the following way : "The best-known and one of the most important, not only of Dutch, but of all medieval manuscripts is the Hours of Catherine of Cleves , which was made about 1440 for the Duchess of Guelders of the same name. Because it is one of the richest books of hours ever made, both from the point of view of its texts and cycles of illumination, many of which are not only unusual but unique, it is also a key monument in the history of Books of Hours." The Hours was divided into two parts in the middle of the 1800s by an unknown person, most often thought to be an unscrupulous art dealer seeking to make a profit. The second part of the book (M. 917) surfaced again in 1963, and was acquired in 1970 by the Pierpont Morgan Gallery. The book as a whole numbers 369 pages, although eleven pages still remain missing. The Hours contains 157 miniatures (originally 168) with corresponding border decorations, of which 32 were full-page and another 136 half-page miniatures.

96. Great Schism Several articles from a Protestant perspective on the Great Schism that divided the Catholic and Orthodox Churches. http://mb-soft.com/believe/txc/gschism.htm

Great Schism General Information The term Great Schism is used to refer to two major events in the history of Christianity: the division between the Eastern (Orthodox) and Western (Roman) churches, and the period (1378 - 1417) during which the Western church had first two, and later three, lines of popes. Eastern Schism The schism between the Eastern and Western churches is traditionally dated to 1054, although the precise point at which the split became a fixed and lasting reality is difficult to determine. Many causes contributed to the growing misunderstanding and alienation between the two groups. Partly these were differences of philosophical understanding, liturgical usage, language, and custom, but political rivalries and divisions were also involved. Occasions of friction, hostility, and open division on doctrinal questions as well as matters of discipline and daily practice had occurred long before 1054 - for example, the Photian schism of the 9th century.

Answer Popular Subjects Top 20 Questions Ask A Question ... FREE Newsletters OUR SPONSORS Please support our sponsors CATHOLIC QUOTES Encyclopedia RSS Catholic Encyclopedia SPECIAL OFFERS Eastern Orthodoxy One of the most tragic divisions within Christianity is the one between the Catholic Church and the Orthodox churches. Both have valid holy orders and apostolic succession through the episcopacy, both celebrate the same sacraments, both believe almost exactly the same theology, and both proclaim the same faith in Christ. So, why the division? What caused the division? Emperor vs. Patriarch After the western Roman Empire collapsed in A.D. 476, the eastern half continued under the title of the Byzantine Empire and was headquartered in Constantinople. The patriarch of that city had jurisdiction over the patriarchates of Alexandria, Antioch, and Jerusalem, and served under the emperor, who ruled those lands with military might. In the East, the emperor wielded tremendous influence in church affairs. Some emperors even claimed to be equal in authority to the twelve apostles, and as such claimed to have the power to appoint the patriarch of Constantinople. Although the two offices were legally autonomous, in practice the patriarch served at the emperor’s pleasure. Many patriarchs of Constantinople were good and holy bishops who ruled well and resisted imperial encroachments on church matters, but it is difficult to withstand the designs of power-hungry or meddlesome emperors with armed soldiers at their disposal.

S > The Eastern Schism The Eastern Schism From the time of Diotrephes 3 John 1:9-10 ) there have been continual schisms , of which the greater number were in the East Arianism produced a huge schism ; the Nestorian and Monophysite schisms still last. However, the Eastern Schism always means that most deplorable quarrel of which the final result is the separation of the vast majority of Eastern Christians from union with the Catholic Church , the schism that produced the separated, so-called "Orthodox" Church Remote preparation of the schism The great Eastern Schism must not be conceived as the result of only one definite quarrel. It is not true that after centuries of perfect peace, suddenly on account of one dispute, nearly half of Christendom fell away. Such an event would be unparalleled in history , at any rate, unless there were some great heresy , and in this quarrel there was no heresy at first, nor has there ever been a hopeless disagreement about the Faith . It is a case, perhaps the only prominent case, of a pure schism , of a breach of intercommunion caused by anger and bad feeling, not by a rival

100. Filioque Controversy Three articles from Protestant and Orthodox perspectives. http://mb-soft.com/believe/txn/filioque.htm

Filioque Controversy General Information Protestant Perspective Based probably on the baptismal creed of Jerusalem, the Niceno - Constantinopolitan Creed contained a fuller statement concerning Christ and the Holy Spirit than the earlier formula. Its use in eucharistic worship is not much earlier than the 5th century. The so - called Filioque ("and the Son") clause, expressing the double procession of the Spirit, was added at the Third Council of Toledo (589). The Nicene Creed is used by Roman Catholics, many Protestants, and the Eastern Orthodox; the last, however, reject the Filioque clause. BELIEVE Religious Information Source web-site Our List of 1,000 Religious Subjects E-mail Filioque General Information Protestant Perspective Filioque is a combination of Latin words meaning "and from the Son," added to the Nicene Creed by the Third Council of Toledo in 589: Credo in Spiritum Sanctum qui ex patre filioque procedit ("I believe in the Holy Spirit who proceeds from the Father and Son"). It refers to the doctrine of the procession of the Holy Spirit from the Father and the Son.
