Is that not what the Holy Spirit does for us??
Yes it is what the Holy Spirit does for us. He distributes His gifts to each of us individually as He wishes for some benefit. Praying the Rosary may not be of benefit to some, but, as Msgr. Pope attested, it does bring benefit to others, bringing them into a loving relationship with Jesus.
I pray that you do not begrudge anyone who finds Jesus through praying the Rosary.
Peace,
Rich
The problem with the rosary is the utter reliance upon Mary. If you ask God for direction He will give it to you as noted in James. No mention of having to ask Mary for any direction.
