Entry from: Vienna, Austria
Entry Title: Changing Plans
Entry:
One of the advantages of traveling alone is flexibility. If you want or need to change your plans you can do so without worrying about how it will affect others. That's what I've been doing in Vienna. As a result, I have lots of reasons to come back another time. My original plan called for renting a car and visiting some castles in Burgenland on day trips from Vienna. When I communicated with Frau Walkner, she pointed out the difficulty in finding parking in Vienna and suggested that I wait until my arrival to decide about a car. Like Germany, Austria has a pretty extensive and reliable train system, and Vienna has a very well-run and complete public-transportation grid (Strassenbahn, U-Bahn, Autobus, S-Bahn, and even bicycle). In addition, many of the sights are in or on the Ring, and those that are farther away can be reached easily. On the other hand, getting to the castles I wanted to see turned out to be a bit of a problem without a car. Yes, they were reachable by train, but with changes and stops, just getting there and back would take up half the day, and that was only as far as the train station; I would still have had to get up to the castle itself. With the current exchange rate I decided to save some money and fore-go the car. As a result, instead of exploring the countryside I have stayed within Vienna and gotten to know the city. I'll do my excursions on another visit - after all I still want to see those castles! So, on Monday morning I started to experience Vienna. First stop was across the street at Spar, a small supermarket, where I bought groceries. Then I went back to the apartment and fixed breakfast. I saved a lot of money by fixing my own breakfast and dinner most days. Following breakfast, I bought a Wochenkarte at the subway station just outside the apartment. This is the best value on the system if you're staying for a week and starting out on a Monday or Tuesday. The card is valid from Monday through Sunday, costs 14 Euros, and allows unlimited travel on all parts of Vienna's public transportation net. Card in pocket I set off to explore the city. My curriculum for third-year German calls for us to move to Vienna and learn about the city. One of phrases we use is In Wien gibt es mehrere Kirchen. (In Vienna there are a lot of churches.) My goal was to visit several of those mehrere Kirchen. First on the list was, of course, Stephansdom - St. Stephen's Cathedral. Parts of the building date to the Romanesque period, but most of the cathedral is Gothic. There are a lot of fascinating parts to the cathedral. The pulpit, for example, features the Latin Fathers of the Church: Saints Augustine, Ambrose, Gregory and Jerome on the sides of the pulpit. On the base is the Fenstergucker (Man looking out of the window) with a compass in his hand, thought to be a portrait of the sculptor. Along the handrail of the staircase are opposing lizards and toads representing the battle of good (lizards as creatures of light) vs. evil (battle toads). At the very top stands a Domini Canis, hound of God, protecting the preacher from the battle raging below. The supports for the handrail are wheels - three-part wheels (the Trinity) rolling up and four-part wheels (the seasons = earth, mortality) rolling down. After spending time looking through the Stephansdom, I went to the Deutschordenskirche (Church of the Order of Teutonic Knights). It's dedicated to St. Elisabeth of Thuringia and has shields of the Grand Masters of Vienna on the walls, as well as other markings of the order. From there I just wandered a bit soaking in the sights. Kärtnerstrasse is a pedestrian shopping street, but I just window shopped - except for picking up a guide to Vienna. Frau Walkner had recommended I visit the Tourist Information ...

A Wedding in Kraków
Nowa Huta’s Lord’s Ark Church comes with an interesting story of a man who would later become a saint, courageously standing up to the communist regime.
Back when he was archbishop of Kraków, Karol Wojtyła fought for years to build a church in Nowa Huta, the most communist of communist towns. When the regime refused, he insisted on conducting open-air Masses before crowds in fields — until the communists finally capitulated in 1977 and allowed this church to be built. And, of course, that archbishop went on to become St. John Paul II.
The afternoon I dropped by, there were two wedding parties at the church. You'll see the bride and groom scrambling to pick up coins. It's Polish tradition for kids to throw coins rather than rice at the newly married couple — and whoever gathers the most will be destined to “wear the pants” in their family.

Luther and the Protestant Reformation: Crash Course World History #218
In which John Green teaches you about the Protestant Reformation. Prior to the Protestant Reformation, pretty much everyone in Europe was a Roman Catholic. Not to get all great man, but Martin Luther changed all that. Martin Luther didn't like the corruption he saw in the church, especially the sale of indulgences, so he left the church and started his own. And it caught on! And it really did kind of change the world. The changes increased literacy and education, and some even say the Protestant Reformation was the beginning of Capitalism in Europe.

SUMMARY
=======
Popes Pius XI (1922–39) and Pius XII (1939–58) led the Roman Catholic Church through the rise and fall of Nazi Germany. Around a third of Germans were Catholic in the 1930s. The Church in Germany had spoken against the rise of Nazism, but the Catholic aligned Centre Party capitulated in 1933 and was banned. In the various 1933 elections the percentage of Catholics voting for the Nazis party was remarkably lower than the average. Nazi key ideologue Alfred Rosenberg was banned on the index of the Inquisition, presided by later pope Pius XII. Adolf Hitler and several key Nazis had been raised Catholic, but became hostile to the Church in adulthood. While Article 24 of the NSDAP party platform called for conditional toleration of Christian denominations and the 1933 Reichskonkordat treaty with the Vatican purported to guarantee religious freedom for Catholics, the Nazis were essentially hostile to Christianity and the Catholic Church faced persecution in Nazi Germany. Its press, schools and youth organisations were closed, much property confiscated and around one third of its clergy faced reprisals from authorities. Catholic lay leaders were targeted in the Night of the Long Knives purge. The Church hierarchy attempted to co-operate with the new government, but in 1937, the Papal Encyclical Mit brennender Sorge accused the government of fundamental hostility to the church.
Among the most courageous demonstrations of opposition inside Germany were the 1941 sermons of Bishop August von Galen of Münster. Nevertheless, wrote Alan Bullock [n]either the Catholic Church nor the Evangelical Church... as institutions, felt it possible to take up an attitude of open opposition to the regime. In every country under German occupation, priests played a major part in rescuing Jews, but Catholic resistance to mistreatment of Jews in Germany was generally limited to fragmented and largely individual efforts. Mary Fulbrook wrote that when politics encroached on the church, Catholics were prepared to resist, but that the record was otherwise patchy and uneven, and that, with notable exceptions, it seems that, for many Germans, adherence to the Christian faith proved compatible with at least passive acquiescence in, if not active support for, the Nazi dictatorship.Catholics fought on both sides in the Second World War. Hitler's invasion of predominantly Catholic Poland ignited the conflict in 1939. Here, especially in the areas of Poland annexed to the Reich—as in other annexed regions of Slovenia and Austria—Nazi persecution of the church was intense. Many clergy were targeted for extermination. Through his links to the German Resistance, Pope Pius XII warned the Allies of the planned Nazi invasion of the Low Countries in 1940. From that year, the Nazis gathered priest-dissidents in a dedicated clergy barracks at Dachau, where 95 percent of its 2,720 inmates were Catholic (mostly Poles, and 411 Germans) and 1,034 priests died there. Expropriation of church properties surged from 1941.
The Vatican, surrounded by Fascist Italy, was officially neutral during the war, but used diplomacy to aid victims and lobby for peace. Vatican Radio and other media spoke out against atrocities. While Nazi antisemitism embraced modern pseudo-scientific racial principles, ancient antipathies between Christianity and Judaism contributed to European antisemitism. During the Nazi era, the church rescued many thousands of Jews by issuing false documents, lobbying Axis officials, hiding them in monasteries, convents, schools and elsewhere; including in the Vatican and papal residence at Castel Gandolfo. The Pope's role during this period is contested. The Reich Security Main Office called Pius XII a mouthpiece of the Jews. His first encyclical, Summi Pontificatus, called the invasion of Poland an hour of darkness, his 1942 Christmas address denounced race murders and his Mystici corporis Christi encyclical (1943) denounc ...
