actually, the Catholic Church does not command anyone to ever pray the Rosary. You are 100% mistaken. The only thing one is required to hold are certain Dogmas, that are related to the Blessed Mother such as 1)Christ was incarnate of the Virgin Mary by the Holy Spirit, 2) Mary as “Theotokos” {Mother of God, dogmatically defined at the Council of Ephesus in 431AD], 3)Mary as “ever Virgin” which and 4) Mary by God’s Grace being preserved from original sin which is rooted 2nd century theology by Saint Justin Martyr and Saint Ireneaus of Lyon’s as Mary being the “new or 2nd Eve”. The other Marian Dogma is what we Catholics call the “Assumption of Mary” which the Orthodox Church calls the “Dormition of Mary”.

These are the only things an orthodox Catholic are to hold.
