How does this product compare to the Marmot Oracle Jacket? What are the differences? I'm assuming the higher the waterproof rathing & breathable rating, the "better"....but I don't see a rating for this jacket to compare....

The Rain Shadow is a great jacket, and should provide more waterproofing, and breathability than the Oracle. Patagonia jackets feature an H2No waterproof/breathable membrane that tests out at a minimum of ~33k. All Patagonia shells with H2No meet the military standard of 45 PSI (a slightly different rating than th traditional "mm" rating) Patagonia just says that they are waterproof and breathable, period. It's backed up with the unconditional Iron Clad guarantee so you can't go wrong.
