This thing looks to me like the others used to give the individuals a "feel good" sense they aren't getting from the Lord. Technically it is a "item" they believe protects them so therefore it's a pagan practice...certainly not Christian.
Looks like there's multiple choice as st. jude and st joseph and others...which of course believing these have any power is an affront to Christianity. ..and a pagan practice.

I thought there was no assurance of salvation in Catholicism. Now we find out all they have to do is wear that? Talk about easy believeism!
