the_rev Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 Hey everyone! I just got my new rosary in the mail today... But I can't get it blessed until tomorrow, can I pray a rosary on it before it's blessed or do I have to wait til tomorrow to use it? Thanks for your help!

homeschoolmom Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 I think you can... It's a tool, after all. You can pray a rosary on your fingers (or your computer) and they aren't blessed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thy Geekdom Come Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 I don't know, but I don't see why not. If you can pray on your fingers, it's probably okay to pray on unblessed beads... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLAZEr Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 Of course you can pray the Rosary without it being blessed. In fact, the blessing of the sacred object does not add to the efficaciousness of the prayer, it just makes the object sacred. You can pray the rosary on anything you want . . . even golf strokes, as I've been known to do . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLAZEr Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 Are you sure Coke supports Planned Parenthood? I thought they didnt . . . I know PepsiCo does . . . that includes Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, and KFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coca-Cola's Corporate Office stopped donations to Planned Parenthood, but the CEO, Warren Buffet, who owns the vast majority of the company Berkshire Hathaway (of which Coke is a subsidiary), supports abortion very adamantly. I should know...he lives in Omaha and gets a decent amount of press, being the world's second richest man... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLAZEr Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 Coca Cola isn't owned by Berkshire Hathaway. And last year Berkshire Hathaway stopped all of its charitable giving . . . including donations to Planned Parenthood because of the boycott and protest led by women who sell Pampered Chef. So, I started to go to Dairy Queen Again since the money you give to Dairy Queen no longer goes to abortion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLAZEr Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 I want to clarify . . .I don't think Berkshire Hathaway owns coke . . . because I'm almost positive that Coke is sold independently on the NYSE. However, I do know that Warren Buffet owns a lot of coke stock (like 10% or something). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
