You're kidding, right?

Lol.
This thread is about the ROSARY.
If you know ANYTHING about Christian history in Europe you would know that the ROSARY is a quintessential Catholic ritual. So is devotion to Mary.
That Marian devotion, especially the rosary, is the newest thing IS returning to very Catholic practice.
THAT is measuring by the Roman Catholic Church.

If what I wrote weren't true, there would be no thread.

The Catholic bashing, measuring, validating, etc., that goes on in this country is a testament as to how Protestants look at their faith -- how close or how far away is THEIR brand of Christianity from Rome.

Ppssst, your only getting mainline apostates and anglo-Catholics. We don't care about the RCC.

You seem to be far more concerned with how the traditions of your church are viewed in the Protestant community than any Protestants are concerned with their image in the Roman Catholic Church.
