Matthew 6:7
In praying, don’t use vain repetitions, as the Gentiles do; for they think that they will be heard for their much speaking. (WEB)

This is another conflict from the Catholic tradition and the scripture. Given the choice of man’s teaching (Catholic tradition) and scripture, specifically the sermon on the Mount as taught by Jesus..... I will follow Jesus’s teachings.

Remove the word “vain” from that verse and you might have a point. However, the word is there and has meaning.

This issue is addressed in the fairly short video I posted, which not many people wish to watch or comment on. It’s just on with the talking points without seeking to understand a different point of view. :(
