Why do people seem to despise this, yet at the same time quite tolerate and even enjoy, the pomp and ceremony of the British Royal Family without such spite?
It’s very simple: we want to see an humble church like Christ and not a triumphant one like the British monarchy. The Pope is Servus servorum Dei for a reason!
@@oblatusosb For everyday life, yes every Christian must live humbly: but even Saint Francis, or Saint Jean Marie Vianney, who had only one mattress in his room and ate only one potato a day, said that one must have "the most beautiful chalice" for the Holy Liturgy: for our God is worthy to receive all glory. Both gave that what was the most beautiful for the Holy Mass. “And I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks; and in the midst of the seven candlesticks One like unto the Son of Man, clothed with a garment down to the feet and girded about the breast with a golden girdle” (Ap 1) The Liturgy of the Church is not the work of human hands but the work of God, of the Holy Spirit, through His Church: thus the Holy Liturgy is a prefiguration of the celestial Liturgy. So yes, it must be endowed with magnificence and supreme beauty because our God is Love and is therefore infinitely beauty and majesty. “O Lord my God, Thou art very great; Thou art clothed with honor and majesty” Ps 104 “Worthy is the Lamb that was slain, to receive power and riches and wisdom and strength, and honor and glory and blessing!” (Ap 5) “Bless the Lord, O my soul! O Lord my God, Thou art very great; Thou art clothed with honor and majesty” (Ps 104)
If the people in the comments screaming about “pomp” and “vanity” had their way they would destroy the gold altars, tabernacles, and chalices, and strip the churches of any beauty. It’s a shame we have so many people in the church who want to see it relegated to just another religion among many.
Yes Jesus had no where to lay his head he wore simple clothes and sandles, rided on a poney , all the gold, marble floors, marble walls ,silver and bronze. This is not Christianity at all .
You have a Judas mindset, don’t you remember when Judas condemned Mary’s act of reverence and love by anointing the feet of Our Lord with expensive oil? Jesus told him to leave her alone. God deserves the greatest glory and all the riches because it is for and through him that we live.

@@Anonymous-mn8mf I seriously doubt the apostles and Jesus were parading around the last supper table in satin robes, gold chains and goofy hats resembling Roman royalty...but the good ole boys in the hierarchy now love to "costume up," kiss each other's gold rings and lead luxurious lives..except for Francis...
Everyone complaining about how its pompous and extravagant and ignoring the total of your own clothing would add up to much more than this cape, and whereas his was made by sweet old ladies, yours were made by child slaves.
Those religious need to read the Bible more: "For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted." -Matthew 23:12 (NIV)

Avevo una grande stima di Lei ma si è sottomesso all'antipapa francesco, solo lei e pochi altri avrebbero potuto rendere nullo il suo papato ma non ne ha avuto il coraggio perché pauroso di perdere i suoi privilegi. Una volta le sue cerimonie erano cariche di significato e tradizione, ora alla luce dei fatti, sono delle carnevalate perché lei non ha scelto Cristo ma ha scelto il proprio interesse. Si salvi l'anima caro Cardinale perché il suo vestito prima di tutto ricorda il sangue versato da nostro Signore ed è quel sangue che anche lei, se necessita, deve versare per la VERA SANTA CHIESA.
And oddly enough, this video showed up in my RU-vid feed right after I watched the hilarious but frightening "Vatican Fashion Show" in Fellini's 1972 film, "Roma."
There's only two ways to look at it. Being right about this guy will only get you into heaven being wrong about this guy will send you straight to hell there is no in-between !!!! But just like the blind being, not selective, but in darkness , everywhere and in everything. If you can't see the darkness hear you won't see it anywhere else !!!!!!
Insomma un tuffo nel Seicento o nel Settecento! 😅 Non sono certo un fan delle messe con chitarre e bonghi, ma il cardinale Burke e i suoi seguaci sono fuori della storia e non annunciano altro che se stessi e la loro opulenza. Non sarà una Chiesa nostalgica dell'Assolutismo a convertire gli uomini di oggi. Meno male che c'è papa Francesco!
Beurk 😢😢😢 poor guy and poor fellows...I realise now why this guy can t stand Francis. Burke is just ridiculous and disgracious about Jesus Christ. I can t imagine this guy adoring baby Jesus among poor shepherds and enjoying the situation. With so much pride he is expecting to be worshipped and not a baby.
Zbyteczny patos i przepych .Parodia życia i prawdy .Parodia szczerej wiary i prostej Parodia religijna. Religia robi czuba .Religia jest prawdą dla ludu ,kłamstwem dla mędrców ,a dla władzy użyteczna Oto wielka tajemnica wiary :"euro złoto i dolary"
@Alexander Hilton Even if that one example is true then I suppose it’s permissable for the (alleged) god incarnate. This guy isn’t though. He’s clearly a pompous old queen who likes dressing up and being worshipped.
@@Knappa22 That’s not the purpose of the Liturgy. The Mass isn’t necessarily just for us but also a way to highly revere and worship Christ. The secular world focuses exclusively on the empirical rather than the spiritual (no surprise) and can not see the reason for such a majestic way of reverence to God. Some may call it extreme, but it’s simply abiding to tradition and overall the highest level of respect to the sacraments.
Lo insultan pq no entienden (visiòn razòn:como las de las gallinas).Entonces,DIOS premia al q se vacía de si mismo (mirada de águila) y reviste de esplendor para GLORIA de su CREADOR,SEÑOR y SALVADOR!
Ya no estamos en la edad media. Abre tus ojos y mira a tu alrededor. Los cardenales juran dar su vida por el Papa; eso es lealtad y honor. No juran ser leales cuando les convenga. Ese hombre es un traidor como Judas. Solo merece desprecio.
A lo mejor se piensa que estamos en el siglo xv aunque el emperador Carlos mando colgar al obispo Acuña.Entre lo sublime y lo ridículo hay una línea muy fina
Questo non è nemmeno "preconciliarismo", nemmeno gusto del "sacro". Sennò non si spiega che usino in sottofondo la Musica per i Reali Fuochi di Artificio. Cioè musica mondanissima, composta per i festeggiamenti del re d'Inghilterra. Questa è una parata reazionaria. Un re-enactment in costumi d'epoca. E basta. Qui non c'è nessuno a cui stia passando per la testa di fare qualcosa di simile a "pregare". Si stanno autocelebrano. E celebrando l'Ancien Régime.
Tutto ciò si chiama "PROCESSIONE". Si fa ogni volta che, per esempio, si deve celebrare una messa. Più è importante la funzione più la processione è grande. Se poi ti riferisci anche all'abbigliamento...beh, sono vestiti con i loro abiti corali, niente di più
Ah e penso proprio, anzi sono quasi certo, che questa sia la processione di ingresso alle ordinazioni sacerdotali dell'Istituto di Cristo re sommo sacerdote, nella chiesa di San Michele e Gaetano a Firenze. Quindi credo che un po' di solennità per questo evento sia più che giusta
So many anti traditional “Catholics” in the comments lol. So many people crying over making the liturgy beautiful yet don’t pray for their enemies. How many of you who are complaining have offered a decade of the rosary for the cardinal?
When did a Cardinal become treating like a King? I thought Jesus was a simple man unlike these Cardinals and Priests wearing expensive vestments. What happened to the simple way of life of the Priesthood?
According to the Treaty of Versailles, (Still recognized) every Cardinal of the Catholic Church ranks higher than even the President of the United States. The Pope is a King. Cardinals are Princes of the Vatican City-State. Cardinals have been treated like Cardinals for many centuries. People in the comments here love to rain on the Cardinal's parade I see. To all the haters posting comments, judge not lest ye be judged.
@@Anonymous-mn8mf, okay, you keep on repeating this one proof text. You've also referred to the procession of Jesus into Jerusalem, but you don't seem to get the text's deliberate irony that his mode of conveyance was not a chariot but a sweaty barn animal.
@@GoatHoovesInSpats, I'll be glad to judge and be judged by the same standards we're applying to these silk-dressed prelates. I tend to wear clothes until they literally begin to fall apart; then I shop for new ones. I'm not saying this to impress anyone, and I know that I still live a privileged life compared to the world's truly poor. But when I'm judged, and I will be, at least I know it won't be for wearing costly vestments or pretending to be an "alter Christus," which, if I were, would mean selling all my possessions, having nothing to wear except a dirty cloak, no comfortable bed to sleep in every night, no regular meals served right on time, no state-of-the-art health care in the Vatican's well-equipped clinic. None of that. If Burke were another Christ, and lived in simple poverty like Christ, then I'd have a reason to respect him.
@@NoiseGrinder in My Life i kissed the ring of cardinal Ugo Poletti, twenty Years ago. He had to celebrate a Mass for the last king of Italy , Humbert ll. What Memories!
I am a faithful Catholic. Here, IMHO, is the true Leader of the Church. I respect the fact that Francis was lawfully-elected and ordained in the Chair of St. Peter. And Francis has indeed lived a worthy personal life, imitating Christ in his everyday actions and humble service to the poor. But Francis's leadership of the Church itself has been highly questionable, he has compromised too much with the world of secularism, and has, essentially, watered down the faith. We badly need somebody like Burke at the helm...who will actually restore Catholicism itself to the faith...the Church that Jesus Christ Himself founded.
Dear modernist, this "failed" version of the Church is the one that is evangelizing so many people, especially young people, your rotten, arrogant and modern church is distancing people from God.
@@yehoshuaeldjudio2134 Dear dinosaur, I'm an atheist, just so you know. And precisely thanks to fanatics of the obsolete like you who hope with their bellicose attitude, as if they are still in the crusades, that ignorant people will give credence to their western legends and irrelevant doctrines in global society. Who can give credit to a religion divided into tens of thousands of churches, each with its different version, and even the most traditional with their evident taste for the mythical and epic style? You are a joke, as are the ancient Greek, Roman or Germanic religions.
@@pmi74m Fallacies after slander worthy of an ignorant peasant, As a former atheist I tell you and it is a reality, the Catholic Church is militant, because we are always at war, against the world and the devil, and now there is a new front, the modernists, if the Nazis, pagans, Muslims and Protestants cannot and cannot and will not destroy the Holy Catholic Church, Do you think that Atheism can? Atheism is the best proof that the Catholic Church is Holy and founded by God
@mikem6251 😂 We don't even "worship" Vicar of Christ (current Pope) and no one ever kneeled during liturgical procession even in front of John Paul II and we made him Saint or pope Benedict who was considered a traditionalist! Why do some keep these traditions when 4 generations of Popes abbandoned them completely is beyond me!
. Mamma mia che roba Non si vergogna cardinale? I monsignor i blu non li avevo mai visti... Che cazzate La cappa magna è poi ridicola.... Ecco perché calano i fedeli Con simili esempi..
Sorry, i like good liturgy, but for me its a little too much pious folklore and i do not patronising wig-wag during the intrance procession. When you go solemny over marble, you symbolize the walking people of Israel and not yourselve. I do not know if is this clear when you see the cappa magna.
In my opinion, this goes too far because this is no longer honoring God, which is what liturgical vestments, precious vessels and the elevated altar are about -- this is Cardinal Burke celebrating himself as a Prince of the Church, and this is Baroque feudalism, not liturgy.
Division is not the hallmark of the true church, by fomenting division and working in opposition to the Holy See he is a character of division. Also his distancing affectations far from advancing the church is adding to its woes. A poor and misguided man, I pray for him.
You are correct to say that division is not the hallmark of the true Church. You are incorrect to assert that it is Cdl. Burke who foments the division - the perennial teaching of Christ through his Bride are the stable point of reference. Ask yourself who departs from them, then you will know who the poor misguided souls are.
@@BrianB-qz4rc That is a sacrilegious statement. The vestments of the clergy have nothing to do with transgenderism, cross-dressing, or the gay lifestyle. They are there for good snd holy reasons.
Diz o Evangelho pregado pela Santa Igreja com sua legítima interpretação ao qual a mesma CRIOU e celebrou e ainda celebra nesse rito por dois milênios? Tolice se você for católico e achar que a Sagrada Tradição é contrária a Sagrada Escritura. Obs: é um sacerdote que está ali, representando a todo momento Nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo, o mesmo senhor que mandou que construíssem um tempo de prata e ouro para que este fosse adorado, além das vestes mais luxuosas para o sumo sacerdote. Não se engane com esse "Jesus" socialista que o mundo moderno prega . Pax!
