Pray the Rosary, once. I'm sure a miracle will happen. Maybe not in your life but in someone's.
Satan has tried to destroy the Rosary ever since Our Lady gave it to St. Dominic Savio, but never could.

Iv'e been given a dream with Peter saying,
"You are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my Catholic Church"

That's not what Jesus said. LOL. He called Peter a little rock: Petros. He was building the church upon Himself, Petra, the Rock. I realize Catholics deny that the church is built upon the confession of faith that Peter had just made, and not on Peter himself.

Despite the popularity of Blessed Alanus's story about the origins of the rosary, there has never been found any historical evidence positively linking St. Dominic to the rosary. The story of St. Dominic's devotion to the rosary and supposed apparition of Our Lady of the Rosary does not appear in any documents of the Church or Dominican Order prior to the writings of Blessed Alanus, some 300 years later. source

What he said in may dream. And we don't deny that. Jesus said that because Peter was meant to be the first Catholic Pope.

If you do, then how could Mary give birth to a perfect soul? If Mary was a sinner, how could she give birth to something perfect? Jesus came down from Heaven, BODY AND SOUL

Actually, Jesus, as we, was born under the federal headship of Adam.. just like us. If He wasn't He couldn't have been the fulfillment of the law, and become our new federal head.

Jesus was as fully man as we are, as much as He was fully God.

I prayed to Mary when my Grandma was on her deathbed and she lived 2 more weeks.

Truly a blessing from God that your grandfather didn't have to suffer two further weeks of the agony in dying..

You ask Mary to intercede for you because you deny what the Bible says.

There is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus. 1 Timothy 2:5

1 Timothy 2
Easy-to-Read Version
God Wants Us to Pray for Everyone
2 First of all, I ask that you pray for all people. Ask God to bless them and give them what they need. And give thanks. 2 You should pray for rulers and for all who have authority. Pray for these leaders so that we can live quiet and peaceful lives—lives full of devotion to God and respect for him. 3 This is good and pleases God our Savior.

4 God wants everyone to be saved and to fully understand the truth. 5 There is only one God, and there is only one way that people can reach God. That way is through Christ Jesus, who as a man 6 gave himself to pay for everyone to be free. This is the message that was given to us at just the right time. 7 And I was chosen as an apostle to tell people that message. (I am telling the truth. I am not lying.) I was chosen to teach those who are not Jews to believe and understand the truth.

Special Instructions for Men and Women
8 I want the men everywhere to pray. Men who lift their hands in prayer must be devoted to God and pleasing to him. They must be men who keep themselves from getting angry and having arguments.

From the context, it is clear middle man has to do with the cross not prayer. We know from Romans 8 that the Holy Spirit intercedes too. Also, many saints on earth intercedes or prays too.

Why, then, the Law [what was its purpose]? It was added [after the promise to Abraham, to reveal to people their guilt] because of transgressions [that is, to make people conscious of the sinfulness of sin], and [the Law] was ordained through angels and delivered to Israel by the hand of a mediator [Moses, the mediator between God and Israel, to be in effect] until the Seed would come to whom the promise had been made.

Now the mediator or go-between [in a transaction] is not [needed] for just one party; whereas God is only one [and was the only One giving the promise to Abraham, but the Law was a contract between two, God and Israel; its validity depended on both].
