“How sad. So now the claim is that the angel Gabriel was praying to Mary?”

How silly. The Angel was addressing her, as we do when we Pray the Rosary. If I ask you to pray for me, am I praying TO you?

Mary is dead and only if she is omniscient can she hear you, not to mention hearing all Catholics who pray to her at the same time. So it is not the same as asking me to pray for you.

As for Gabriel, the story makes that case, not me. The child is saying that it is good to pray to Mary because of the scripture about the angel addressing Mary. What I posted was a question.
