Honest (but probably stupid) question.  Are these blasphemous?

My husband and I say rosary every day.  When he works, we say a rosary at 6pm and when he is off, in the mornings.  We say it in the car on our journeys and I say one when I take a daily walk. For myself, I try to say 3 rosaries. But always everyday.  I keep a rosary in my pocket.  Last week, I gave 2 rosaries to a friend and family member.  But I started reading a book: the secret of the rosary by De Monfort.  If you have never read it, it is very good! It is a small paperback and Tan publishes it.

I pray all fifteen decades straight through in Latin, every day.

I just know someone's going to call me a modernist.

Show-off.  

(Just kidding!!!  )

I don't know if they are blasphemous but they certainly are pretty.  I think I'd rather have one of these than one of those furry tiger striped steering wheel covers.  

I don't think it's blasphemous; I just think it depends on if it helps someone or someone else just doesn't care for it.

I prefer my Rosary, because I (it was my Mom's RIP) had it Blessed for me to gain other indulgences when I use it in a state of grace, of course, also within 8 days of sacraments.


Oh - my daughter had one of those black and shocking pink tiger-striped jungle car sets with matching steering wheel when she was 18.  :barf:

I just don't know about relying on it as a blessed sacramental.  :idea: (I think not!)  :judge:

I think they are pretty too, but I wasn't sure if something like that was okay. Not that I can afford one anyway.

LOL about the wild car accessories.  I am way too particular about my car looking completely tidy inside so I have never had anything like that.  I did however, drive around in high school with a lot of glass chalk on my back window. I wonder  if that is just a Midwest thing.  

As my family was growing up, we said the rosary every day after supper.  We were fortunate enough to have a room in our house that we used as a chapel of sorts.  We also often said the rosary on car trips if they were long enough to get in five decades.  

When my children were all out of the house, my wife and I continued to pray the rosary together every evening, sometimes joined by family members who happened to be there or friends.  For about a year after my wife died, it was almost impossible for me to say the rosary at all, and I began saying the Jesus Prayer with a Byzantine prayer rope.  I was eventually able to resume saying the rosary, but generally did it before Mass or the Divine Liturgy.  Now that I am living with one of by daughters and her family again while I am waiting for a house to be finished, I say the rosary with them, although it does not always happen daily.  We also have the rosary after Matins and the Divine Liturgy at church every morning.  

Thank you.  It was six years ago on Assumption Day.
