Was it hard to decode hieroglyphics?

I guess you mean the Rosetta Stone, and you mean "translate", not decode.The biggest problem facing anyone looking at a script like that is not knowing the language. Having some idea of how the language works will always help to discover how the writing works.Secondly, the reader must decide what kind of script is being used: alphabetical, syllabic, rebus or a mixture of all three.Without knowing the language that is represented, knowing what kind of message is included is helpful; is it a religious text, a mathematical text, an account of events, a legal document and so on.A major difficulty was that several important scholars had declared hieroglyphs to be a rebus, where every sign stood for a complete idea, word or even a sentence. This false theory was accepted by many other scholars and it served to lead the translators along the wrong path for some time.The translators fortunately had a number of useful clues:The Coptic language was still being used in some areas of Egypt and the Coptic language is the very last stage in the evolution of the ancient Egyptian language. Many people looking at hieroglyphs had already studied Coptic.Other hieroglyphic texts had already made them discount an alphabet system, since there were far too many signs in hieroglyphs for it to be purely alphabetic.Champollion was the first to identify the mixed nature of the signs, which are composed of alphabetic, syllabic and ideographic signs as well as others without a sound value at all.The major bonus for translators was the associated text in Greek which could easily be read; this identified the kind of message contained in the inscription, it identified personal and place names, it included numeric values and other helpful elements.Without the Greek text, translating the hieroglyphs would have been almost impossible.

What is an onk?

It's actually spelled Ankh. It's also known as the Ansata Cross and the Egyptian Cross.The Ankh Cross is a looped Tau Cross and an old Egyptian hieroglyph meaning life. It sometimes goes by the exotic name Key of the Nile. There are several theories about the origin of this design. One suggestion is that the symbol looks like the posts that aligned the banks of the Nile River to indicate the high-water mark of floods. Since the floods bring new and fertile soil, this became the symbol of renewed life. Another theory to connect this hieroglyph to life, is from the symbolic representation of a sandal's thong with a loop going around the ankle. In ancient Egyptian, sandal thong and life had the same pronunciation (homophony). Deciding on a hieroglyph for sandal thong was relatively easy; they simply drew what they saw. But deciding on something for the less tangible life, was a challenge. So they used the hieroglyph that had the same sound. This occurs frequently in non-phonetic languages and is known as the Rebus Principle. (The English word ankleis derived from Indo-European ank.)Ankh symbol, seen in the center of this ancient Egyptian relief And yet another theory goes that the Ankh symbol is a sketch of the womb, in addition to being a sketch of the sexual union of male and female genitalia. By extension, we imagine zest, energy, reproduction, regeneration, and immortality. For many civilizations using this symbol, the loop represented the sun and it was held by many gods including Atum, the sun-god of Heliopolis. The loop is also a perfect symbol that has neither beginning nor end, so it represents the eternal soul. The entire symbol is also a key, to unlock hidden mysteries in the Kingdom of the Dead and was often used in funeral rites. The symbol also represents the Tree of Life, with its trunk and foliage.

What is the meaning of indulgence in the Catholic Church?

Roman Catholic AnswerIndulgences are a little hard to understand in this day and age for a couple reasons, first we have lost the sense of sin, and we don't really understand its consequences. Second, we have even lost a sense of God, and how He views things, and third, since the protestant revolt, there has been so much misinformation about indulgences that even some priests and many people in the pews do not understand them. Let's start with sin: To understand indulgences you must first understand sin and its consequences.Let me try to explain. When one sins, one damages the Body of Christ, as, by our Baptism, we are all members of the Body of Christ, and everything we do, for good or ill, affects everyone.Say you are in the street in your neighborhood playing softball. You hit one and it goes flying across the street and through Mrs. Neighbor's front window. You put the bat down, walk across the street, knock on the door, and apologize to Mrs. Neighbor. She forgives you, since you were nice, and owned up to your fault. Up until now we have the basic scenario of someone going into confession and confessing their sins. But wait, notice that in my example, the window is still broken. You have to go home and confess to your father and mother that you broke the window, they, in turn, take your allowance for the next several years and pay to have the window fixed. The broken window is the example of how we damage the Body of Christ. The allowance that you have to fork over for the next several years is your penance. Now, an indulgence is based on the fact that when Jesus was a man living on the earth, his mother, and the other saints down through the centuries, have done more good works than they need to do their penances (in the case of Our Blessed Lord, and His mother, they had no need of penances, so all their good works are surplus), so, the Church, through Her power of the keys, can apply the merits of those good works to your penance. So in the example above, the indulgence is your parents fixing the window for you, and you are still going to get your allowance. You might have to fork over some of it to help, but they are not going to impoverish you for the next several years.That is what an indulgence is: it is the application of the good works of the saints to make up for your penances. Please note that they are only applicable to someone in a state of grace who has already been forgiven. They have NOTHING to do with the remission of sin. Without prior remission of sin, there can be no indulgence.Now, here is the description of an indulgence in the Catechism of the Catholic Church which Blessed Pope John Paul II, of happy memory, issued:1471 "An indulgence is a remission before God of the temporal punishment due to sins whose guilt has already been forgiven, which the faithful Christian who is duly disposed gains under certain prescribed conditions through the action of the Church which, as the minister of redemption, dispenses and applies with authority the treasury of the satisfactions of Christ and the Saints." (Paul VI, apostolic constitution, Indulgentiarum doctrina, Norm 1.)1472To understand this doctrine and practice of the church, it is necessary to understand that sin has a double consequence.Grave sin deprives us of communion with God and therefore makes us incapable of eternal life, the privation of which is called the "eternal punishment" of sin. On the other hand every sin, even venial, entails an unhealthy attachment to creatures, which must be purified either here on earth, or after death in the state called Purgatory. This purification frees one from what is called the "temporal punishment" of sin. These two punishments must not be conceived of as a kind of vengeance inflicted by God from without, but as following from the very nature of sin. A conversion which proceeds from a fervent charity can attain the complete purification of the sinner in way a way that no punishment would remain. (Cf. Council of Trent {1551} Denzinger-SchÃ¶metzer, Enchiridion Symbolorum, definitionum et declarationum de rebus {1965} 1712-1713; {1563}: 1820)

What are religious indulgences?

Religious indulgences are the remission of the temporal punishment due to sin which has previously been forgiven. It has nothing to do with the remission of sin, and an indulgence cannot be obtained by a person in a state of sin.In Catholic Theology, when you sin, you not only hurt yourself, but the entire Body of Christ, of which you are a member in virtue of your baptism. An indulgence is when the merits of another (like a saint) are applied to your need. Below are two paragraphs from the Catechism explaining indulgences, and below that is my personal explanation:1471 “An indulgence is a remission before God of the temporal punishment due to sins whose guilt has already been forgiven, which the faithful Christian who is duly disposed gains under certain prescribed conditions through the action of the Church which, as the minister of redemption, dispenses and applies with authority the treasury of the satisfactions of Christ and the Saints.” (Paul VI, apostolic constitution, Indulgentiarum doctrina, Norm 1.)1472 To understand this doctrine and practice of the church, it is necessary to understand that sin has a double consequence. Grave sin deprives us of communion with God and therefore makes us incapable of eternal life, the privation of which is called the “eternal punishment” of sin.

These two punishments must not be conceived of as a kind of vengeance inflicted by God from without, but as following from the very nature of sin. A conversion which proceeds from a fervent charity can attain the complete purification of the sinner in way a way that no punishment would remain. (Cf. Council of Trent {1551} Denzinger-Schömetzer, Enchiridion Symbolorum, definitionum et declarationum de rebus {1965} 1712-1713; {1563}: 1820)Indulgences: "The remission before God of the temporal punishment due to sins forgiven as far as their guilt is concerned, which the follower of Christ with the proper dispositions and under certain determined conditions acquires through the intervention of the Church, which, as minister of the redemption, authoritatively dispenses and applies the treasury of the satisfaction won by Christ and the saints." (Pope Paul VI, Apostolic Constitution on Indulgences.My explanation:To understand indulgences you must first understand sin and its consequences.Let me try to explain. When one sins, one damages the Body of Christ, as, by our Baptism, we are all members of the Body of Christ, and everything we do, for good or ill, affects everyone.Say you are in the street in your neighborhood playing softball.
