Catholics: why are some of you so defensive about what is and isn’t a rosary?
For context I posted this on a rosary sub reddit and as you can see from the comments everyone has been bashing me for posting this, almost taking offence to it like damn calm down 😂 I only saw posts from Catholics and thought I’d add a different religions take on something as simple as a prayer bead to highlight a different take on this common item but it felt like me and the creator of the sub reddit were criminals and basically anyone who said something sane or logical like “this is a rosary, just not a catholic one” was also blasted to oblivion.
My understanding of prayers beads and rosary’s are essentially that they are the SAME thing. To praise your God with. I was really taken aback at how some of them even stooped to such levels as calling my prayer beads as evil.
What are your thoughts?
