How the Lord's Prayer Contradicts the Reformation

Just refuted, but what the Lord's Prayer does Contradict is praying to anyone but the Lord, as the Lord instructs "Our Father who art in Heaven," not "Our Mother." The Holy Spirit provides over 200 prayers in Scripture, but not one single one addressed to anyone else in Heaven by the Lord.

That the Lord Jesus can be prayed to is a testimony to His deity.

Only pagans are show making supplications to someone else, that being the only Queen of Heaven in Scripture. (Jer. 44)

Nor is there any other heavenly intercessor but Christ, (1Pt. 2:5) whom the Holy Spirit sends us to as uniquely qualified and able and who alone is said to ever do so. (Heb. 2m4; 7:25)

Nor is any created being shown having the Divine ability to hear virtually infinite amounts of prayer from earth.

Angels and elders offering prayers as a memorial at the last days does not do it, and and attempting to extrapolate PTDS from earthly relations ignores the manifest division God set up btwn the two realms, which requires both to be in the same realm for any two way communication.
