isn’t the rosary the hail mary full of grace repetition thing?

You may not worship Mary, but the church does.

This is also why I say many that call themselves catholics, might not actually be catholics, but might be christians instead.

Do you really understand the Rosary?

Do you understand that it is a meditation on the Life of Christ?

Joyful Mysteries — Christ’s Childhood from the Annunciation to finding him in the Temple at the age of 12 — all biblical and all about Christ.

Luminous Mysteries — Christ’s Adult life from the First Miracle at the Wedding of Cana through his proclamation of the Word and the call to conversion to the Institution of the Eucharist at the Last Supper — all biblical.

Sorrowful Mysteries — Christ’s sufferings from the Agony in the Garden through the Crucifixion — all biblical.

Glorious Mysteries — Christ’s Glory from the Resurrection through the Descent of the Holy Spirit through honoring his Mother. All biblical except the last two.

Yes, we say an Our Father, a Hail Mary, and a Glory Be with each 10 parts of a mystery, but it is not vain repetition — for we meditate on the life of Christ while we pray.

Please do educate yourself further on the Rosary, BWF.

Your ignorance of the rosary is amazing. I’d provide links to educate you on it but i doubt seriously that you really want to learn the truth about it.
