Newbie, don’t you mean to pray to God or Christ?

No, he means pray to Saint Seelos. It's right there in his post and everything.

Blessed Seelos, intercede for this woman, we PRAY you.

The rest of you: pray does not mean 'worship', it means 'entreat'.

Asking a Saint to pray for you is perfectly reasonable, just like asking FReepers to pray for you.

See for instance Revelation 5:8, where John depicts the saints in heaven offering our prayers to God under the form of "golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints."

Could just be Roman Catholic. They pray to dead people. Unless a Christian says something Bibley. Then they say they don’t, and we’re stupid for saying something. Then when we’re gone and there’s just them, they go back to it.
