It is not a requirement for it to be mentioned in scripture.I have yet to have my questions from the op answered, here they are:
Do RCs really believe in the power of the rosary and why is it not mentioned in scripture? I mean if praying to Mary was this powerful, why is it not mentioned in scripture?
So the way Jesus prayed and taught us to pray is not good enough for RCs. They decided there was something better - Mary and her rosary. One comes directly from Jesus and the other is man made up rubbish.It is not a requirement for it to be mentioned in scripture.

No they don't. Marian devotions DO NOT COME from Jesus at all. Not one RC has ever proved that to be so. So Jesus showed us an imperfect way to pray and the RCC had to fix it up.They both come from Jesus.

What does it matter whether or not it is part of official Catholic church liturgy?The Rosary developd many years after scripture was written, obviously. It is what is called a "devotion", which is a custom, ritual, or practice of worship of God or honour of the saints which is in addition to the liturgy of the Catholic Church. As a devotion, it is not part of official Church liturgy. There are many devotions that people say are powerful, that are not in Scripture, such as pilgrimages to the Holy Land.
There's what God says and then there's what people say.
I'm sorry you couldn't understand my answers, I can't see how I can make.them any plainerRepeating your post that tells us nothing, still means nothing.

You guys think very little of Jesus. You'll say no, but the thread shows it.
It's like mormons who say that the bible as modified by Joseph Smith to contain things that don't exist in the original languages is okey dokie, since Joseph Smith was a "prophet" and had the authority to tweak God's word to make it right.
Ok. But why bother to mention it's not part of Catholic liturgy? What's your point?I'm just posting facts
So no answer, no sign the RCC or its followers are guided by the HS at all.The Holy Spirit guides us into all the truth.
Just general information purposesOk. But why bother to mention it's not part of Catholic liturgy? What's your point?
I understand your diverting and non answer. It is clear for all to see.I'm sorry you couldn't understand my answers, I can't see how I can make.them any plainer
You are just avoiding and diverting. No evidence or facts to support the beliefs and practices and so called benefits at all.I'm just posting facts
So address my answer then and tell me specifically how it did not address your questionsI understand your diverting and non answer. It is clear for all to see.
You haven't answered, so that is impossible. I am not God, I cannot do the impossible.So address my answer then and tell me specifically how it did not address your questions
My questions:
Do RCs really believe in the power of the rosary and why is it not mentioned in scripture? I mean if praying to Mary was this powerful, why is it not mentioned in scripture?
You asking questions about what others believe is not answering at all, but it is diverting off topic.
My post did indeed answer your question, why it isn't found in ScriptureYou haven't answered, so that is impossible. I am not God, I cannot do the impossible.

As i answered before, it is not mentioned in scripture because the devotion was developed later. Not all devotions need to be mentioned in Scripture to be powerful.
If you reread my original post, you'll see that I asked no questions, and your accusations of diversion are mistaken.You asking questions about what others believe is not answering at all, but it is diverting off topic.
