I’m curious,
Are there any Non-Catholics here who pray the Rosary?
 
Some Anglicans and Lutherans pray some variation of it. I don’t know how much the Orthodox use it since they have the chotki.
 
Some do, but I’m not sure how common it is. I actually gave a rosary to Greek Orthodox guy from Syria, and he was apparently familiar with how Latins(like me) pray the rosary. He didn’t object to it. I mean, other than having to change the Apostles Creed a little bit, there’s not a whole lot there that the Orthodox would object to. I don’t know about the coronation of the Virgin Mary, I’m not sure what the Orthodox view of that is, but I know that the Orthodox very well believe in the assumption, but like Eastern Catholics they call it the dormition. I also know, that the Orthodox don’t necessarily believe Mary was conceived without sin, as they have a different understanding of original sin as Catholics do, but I guess they could change that to something in their terminology, and be fine with it. I’m fairly familiar with Byzantine right practices, via the melkite church, so I’m sure they could work something out if they had some objection to it

The Lutheran Rosary Non-Catholic Religions
It’s a private little devotion I use ( after consulting with my pastor whether or not it’s in keeping with LCMS Lutheranism about two years ago). I have a link to its use and how the Lutheran Church- Missouri Synod regards it ( as long as it’s used as an aid to meditation, it’s apparently fine): xrysostom.blogspot.com/2008/09/do-lutherans-use-rosary.html, and here are a couple of links regarding Lutheran Mariology in general: cyclopedia.lcms.org/display.asp?t1=m&word=MARIOLOGY, whymarymatters.…

I prayed the rosary off and on before actually coming home. I went to a Catholic school and learned it there. I liked it.
 
Yes. I started praying it a year ago after I initially began to be drawn to Catholicism.
