Things You Should Know As A Catholic

[Slappo]

By the way... it isn't wrong to pray the rosary during mass... It may not be the best way to assist at mass, but it definitely isn't sinful, illegitimate, or wrong.

Some saints meditated on the mysteries of the holy rosary constantly.

On that same note I wouldn't encourage the practice. I just don't think it's fair to criticize those that choose to do so.

Read this today, and thought about this thread:

For the faith that we have received from Jesus Christ enables us to love God because it enables us to know him. But because we often tend to live our Christianity like a habit, we do not make use of this ability, or at least we do not make sufficient use of it. We love God only with a mediocre love because our knowledge of him is mediocre. Now, it would therefore follow that the first of our tasks in time is to know God as much as possible, in order to glorify him as much as possible and to compensate as much as possible for our neighbor's lack of knowledge of him.

If we are fully convinced of this first temporal duty, I think we will be able to confront all the rest of our temporal duties without unbalancing our supernatural life: for these duties carry us implacably deeper into the first and second commandments that the Lord gave us.
