Why pray to Mary when you can pray to God? Who are you talking to when you pray the Hail Mary? I pray to God. Here is what Jesus recommended:

"Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come.
Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil

At no point did Jesus instruct his disciples to pray to his mom to get a back stage pass to the Big Guy. Unless I misread scripture, and I'm sure you'll point to the exact passage if I've missed it.

"Hail Mary; Mother of GOD

Just ain't biblical; dude.

In a similar question; why isn't ONE 'Hail Mary' good enough?

Why all the repeating and repeating and repeating?

Is the cell reception THAT bad in heaven?
