"Through him, and with him, and in him, O God, almighty Father, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, all honor and glory is yours, for ever and ever."
Okay, thanks. I wasn’t familiar with the term Doxology of the Liturgy. I didn’t know if it referred to the Great Doxology (the Gloria) or the Eucharistic Doxology before the Great Amen.
Through Him with Him and in Him in communion with the Holy Spirit, All Glory and Honor is Yours Almighty Father, Forever and Ever, Amen.
I see Salvation already answered your question. I posted a response without seeing that.
I guess St. Dominic and the Blessed Mother were all wrong regarding Our Lady's Rosary. No wonder Pope Francis disparages what he calls "rosary-counters".
Catholic services preserve the interactive call-and-response style of the Jewish services, which Jesus attended. Also, when his disciples asked him how to pray, he gave them a rote prayer— the Lord’s Prayer. Obviously, He didn’t use that one exclusively Himself (”My God, why have You forsaken me?”). But it wasn’t a bad idea.
It’s easy to pray rote prayer thoughtfully, without just babbling syllables. If people are doing otherwise, that’s on them, not on the content of the prayers or on the liturgical setting.
“Even Jesus taught the apostles and disciples how to pray the Our Father. Memorized prayer is OK since we are imitating Jesus.”
I’ve found that prayer to be very much a blessing lately. It is simple and covers all areas of need. And because the Father hears it through Christ Jesus and the “translation” of the Spirit, it is as deep and rich as our unfathomable hearts need it to be. “He knows what you need before you ask.”
Pope Francis prays the rosary every day of his life.

Yeah, I’ve heard that before. I still don’t believe it.
Devout Catholics pray the rosary every day. Are you saying the Pope is not a devout Catholic?
Any Pope who refuses to give a visible apostolic blessing to a crowd, for fear of offending non-Catholics, is not a devout Catholic.
Any Pope who forbids a religious order from offering the TLM is not a devout Catholic.
Any Pope who spouts “prosleytism is nonsense” and “atheists can go to Heaven” is not a devout Catholic.
Any Argentinean Archbishop who allows false religions to worship in his cathedral is not a devout Catholic.
He is a Modernist, which as Pope St. Pius X decreed in 1907, makes him a heretic.
In a tribute to Pope John Paul II at the time of his death, then Cardinal Bergoglio recounted how, in 1985, the example of the Polish Pope inspired him, from that time on, to recite the 15 mysteries of the Rosary every day.
I would say any pope who does that stuff is not a valid pope.
If the Pope was saying a daily rosary, he wouldn't be doing the above. And he wouldn't be making fun of traditional Catholics who offer him Rosary bouquets.
If someone had listed those things as hypothetical a few years ago I think the majority of "conservative" Catholics would have agreed. Now we're watching the line in the sand being redrawn yet again.
Frankly I'm too afraid to call a spade a spade anymore because I don't know what's coming next. We're all in very dangerous territory, of that I am certain.
“Any Argentinean Archbishop who allows false religions to worship in his cathedral is not a devout Catholic”.
Billy Graham regularly had worship services in Catholic Cathedrals all over the world. So you are calling Billy Graham and his protestant faith a “false religion”. Do your research before you post something. The rest of your post is also nonsense.
“He falls asleep at night reading Kasper’s book of heresies. He calls people, living in mortal sin, out the blue telling them to find another Church, where nobody knows them”
And you believe everything you read from the liberal media.
