The rosary is nothing more than Jewelry...it has no power. Just one more thing to be ritualistic with... and be ‘repetitive’ with ‘canned prayers’ you can’t think of yourself.
If repeating the prayers in a set order is what matters you could simply record them and set up a playlist on your iPod.
God wants us to come to him and know him. He gave us the “Our Father” as a framework about how to pray.
Our Father in Heaven, your name is Holy. - Acknowledgement of Him and His Holiness.
Your Kingdom is coming and your will is done on Earth and in Heaven. - Acknowledgement of His Authority.
Give us this day our daily bread. - Bring to Him our needs.
And forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. - Ask for mercy and understand you must give mercy to others so that He will forgive you.
Lead us not into tempation but deliver us from evil. - We should ask God to keep us from the inclination to sin when we have the opportunity and keep us from the opportunity to sin when we have the inclination.
Jesus said “Pray in this way.” He didn’t say repeat this mystical mantra a set number of times and you’ll prosper. It’s supposed to be a framework and an example, not a magic spell.
Maybe you're confusing the Rosary with the prosperity gospel so prevalent in Protestantism.
If it's any consolation to you, the Church doesn't teach that praying a Rosary will bring prosperity. In fact, as a life-long Catholic, I have never met an individual Catholic who does. Nor is a Catholic required to ever pray the Rosary.
ROTFLOL..oh my gosh I lost it reading that!
