The Marian Tenets of Prayer

One of the fundamental beliefs of the Catholic Church that had been debated since time immemorial is the prayer itself. Religious scholars, agnostics, atheists and different groups have questioned the tenets of the Catholic Church on why they pray to the Virgin Mary, instead of addressing only one God in their prayer.

Many believe that the church leaders inadvertently distorted the holy bible in as much as they distorted religious facts itself. The debate farther put into question the way Catholics perform the Holy Rosary by mentioning the Virgin Mary repeatedly in a recitative prayer speech. And how does it really work to get miracles from God albeit His name was hardly mentioned in the Holy Rosary? It’s a big question mark for unbelievers.

But for the devotees of Virgin Mary, they argued that miracles happen in their lifetime. Their well established faith on Mary all the more gives them extreme admiration and deep worships whom they treat as equal to God. Apparently, the devotees, whom we can safely refer as idolaters, were no longer addressing God in their prayers. Rather, the Marian devotees constantly communicate with the Virgin Mary which unnecessarily omitting God’s name in between prayers.
