Over the past 6 months it's grown to be a popular accessory. I don't understand how some people can take something sacred and turn it into this..

You're Christian and Jewish? huh.gif


My mother has rosary beads, but she doesn't use them for religious purposes. She got them from her mother and aunt when they passed away... she keeps them for sentimental value, but never wears/uses them.

People wear necklaces with a cross on them... shrug.gif you can find those kinds of necklaces almost anywhere. Lots of people pray to the cross.

Culture... both the rosary and the cross are sacred to religion. We're just more used to seeing people wear the cross than the rosary.

That's interesting. I just asked because it'd be hard to be two religions that have such conflicting views, like whether or not Jesus was the messiah. You'd have to pick one or the other, and whichever one you picked you wouldn't be the other. shrug.gif
