Let's see how accurate the GREEN data is...

 

 

While the rosary, the Memorare, and other prayers are wonderfully powerful ways to intercede for others, Our Blessed Mother decided, in 1840, to help us get a little more creative in regards to how we pray for healing and spiritual conversion for the people in our lives.

Exactly six years later, Mary appeared again, and Sr. Justine asked her these important questions. Our Lady’s reply was surprisingly simple and rather intriguing:

“This scapular is not like others [it is not based on a religious habit] but merely two holy images on a single piece of material. Therefore, no special formula is required to bless it or enroll someone in its use. It suffices that it be blessed by a Catholic priest and worn by the one whom we desire to benefit by Our Lady’s intercession. If, on the other hand, the person is unable, or even unwilling, to wear it or carry it, it may even be slipped, unknown to them, into their clothes, possessions, home or work environments, etc."

If, on the other hand, the person is unable, or even unwilling, to wear it or carry it, it may even be slipped, unknown to them, into their clothes, possessions, home or work environments, etc."

Well, this certainly is an example of a scapular that does not follow all the rules your unnamed source earlier ascribed to the other scapulars. The Green Scapular in fact is a form of prayer for the conversion of that person. Or, if placed in a location in need of prayer (e.g. an abortion mill) for Divine Intervention for God's Will to be done regarding it.

If its use is not efficacious, there is no need to be scandalized by it. The photo you included has not only a Green Scapular, but also the St. Benedict Medal, which is not the same thing.
