I suggested that after the mass everyone in the congregation say the prayer to St. Michael.

You are free to say the prayer to St. Michael.

Why would you want to insist that everyone else in your parish take up your private devotion?

I know I am free to say it and I do. However, I was not "insisting" that everyone else say it, I was just offering it as a suggestion. Gee, you seem to get so defensive about everything - relax!
