Matthew 6:7..."But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions as the heathens do.

The key word is "vain" not "repetitions. If repetition of prayer is the teaching, then Jesus Himself violated this when He prayed three times the same prayer in the garden of Gethsemane:

Matthew 26:39 "...My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as Thou wilt."

not this again! Jesus prayed 3 times, but not directly in a row! He said a prayer then went to check on the disciples and they were asleep. Then he went back and prayed again. Then he went to check on the disciples again, talked to them again and went back to pray for a third time.He did not just kneel there and say the whole prayer three times in a row! How do you compare that with the rosary? I am so amazed at how you twist scripture to match your man-made rituals! You guys have them same mind set as all of the cult people I talk to. There is no reasoning with you and you always have a twisted answer for everything! The hare krishnas say that Jesus was a vegetarian and can dig up scriptures to support that. They also say that John the Baptist was the reincarnation of Elliaja! You do the same thing, but are completely decieved!

Also why does the Pope show respect for a pagan religion? False religions are of the devil, and last I checked we are the enemy of the devil! Well, everyone but the Pope that is! Did the 3 children in the fiery furnace bow down to pagan gods? Not even to the threat of death! We are not to bow to falsehoods. But if you pray to idols and a pagan goddess Mary, I guess this just comes naturally! ;)
