I know I am not a CAtholic expert but I try to keep an open mind. I went to a friend for a service and the nun ladies kept repeating some phrases that always began with "Hail Mary full of grace" and it kind of creeped me out. It was like brainwashing. Didnt Christ teach not to do vain repetitions like the heathen:
"But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking." -Matthew 6:7"
"But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men." -Matthew 15:9"
How do Catholics get spiritual fullfillment from dead lifeless repetitions
