Catholics pray TO Mary. That's the difference.

That Romam Catholicsm has prayer beads speaks volumes. Next we'll be told to wear a piece of cloth to avoid the hell fire.....oh wait. Roman Catholicosm has that too.

Catholics ask Mary to pray to God, which is the difference between what Catholics do and what you say we do.

We have prayer beads because we pray a lot. Jesus often prayed all night. Paul taught to pray continuously. The Desert Fathers adopted prayer beads to help implement this command as early as the 200s AD. Last time I checked, there was no Scriptural prohibition against counting.

I see you're misinformed about the scapular as well. You must object to God's command in Deuteronomy 6:8, too, then.
