You just graduated from college, yet you don't know the proper way to spell "grateful"?

I am graduating college in three weeks and helplessly began my novena asking for help with a job What's a novena? Also, what college are you graduating from? Is St. Jude a college? Is it a place? Or are you talking about the actual Saint?

Althogh I am a Catholic I have never accepted the Church's embrace of Saints. I am devoutly monotheistic.
I do not doubt that God has often chosen to act through special people and that these people are somewhat blessed. I do not accept that they continue to act from Heaven with the powers of God.
The practice of revering and worshiping "Saints" is a continuation of Roman culture in which there were literally hundreds of minor dieties, household gods and gods of special causes.
To: Miss Marple
OK thanks. What's a novena?

well, strictly speaking, the saint is supposed to intercede (pray) with God on your behalf, and the actions are God's.
But it is true that many people pray directly to the saints instead of asking for intercession, and some things to my mind are downright pagan superstitions, like burying a statue of Saint Joseph head down in your yard to sell your house.
But I have asked saints to pray for me, for spiritual matters, in the same way you would ask a friend on earth to pray for you.
To: Natural Law
All power comes from God. But He sometimes chooses to work through men. He demonstrably does so in this world, and there's no reason why He might not choose to do so in the next.

I do not accept that they continue to act from Heaven with the powers of God. Do you think they love you less in heaven, in the very embrace of God who, Scripture says, is love, than they did on earth? Sounds unlikely to me.
You may call yourself a Catholic, but you're not really happy with the full richness of the Catholic faith.
