And the Luminous Mysteries? Or Mysteries of Light, as some call them?

As much as I am open to the idea of these mysteries (I meditate on them with my rosary group on Saturdays, during which we meditate on all 4 sets of mysteries - I follow the old pattern usually), with its inclusion of the Wedding at Cana (one of my favorite passages in the Bible), I am wary of the fact that its addition departs from the 150 number, which derives from the 150 Psalms.

In the article above, the mysteries already differ slightly from the Catholic model. They already include the Wedding at Cana!

I don't foresee this being told to me in Heaven:
200 Hail Mary's? Whoa... too bad, you overshot the mark. Bub-bye!
