Describing your smart device as "aimed at the peripheral frontiers of the digital world where the young people dwell" maybe isn't the hippest way to appeal to the younger generation. But that's exactly what the Vatican intends with its Click to Pray eRosary announced Wednesday. The bracelet features a "smart cross" that houses the data and syncs with an app, and black agate and hematite rosary beads and teaches wearers how to pray the rosary, reports CNN.

This SHOULD be a joke. Something from the Babylon Bee or from Eye Of The Tiber.

Matthew 23:9 - And call no [man] your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.

Everyone has 2 fathers. A physical father and a spiritual father. Which one is the "the world pope"? Can't be the spiritual father because there is only one which is in heaven.

That has absolutely nothing to do with this discussion, and there is no reason to post that here regardless of what you believe

I heard that the Vatican is also developing a version of the eRosary for ex Catholics.

When they plug it in, to sync with the app, all they get is the following message :

Error 404 - File not found.
