OTHER MEDIATORS BETWEEN GOD and MAN.
We have Christ as our Great High Priest who gives us full access to God's throne of grace. We do not need a human priest, nor Mary, nor dead saints to intercede for us. "Seeing then that we HAVE a GREAT HIGH PRIEST ... JESUS CHRIST the Son of God ... Let us therefore COME BOLDLY unto the Throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need." Heb. 4:14, 16.
The Catholic priest, not only makes Christ's death on the cross a waste of time, but he also takes Christ's place as intermediary between man and God, when he says that you can't be saved unless you come to mass performed by him. They call him "Vicar" meaning "in the place of". "For there is one God, and ONE MEDIATOR between God and man. The man Christ Jesus." 1 Timothy 2:5.

Is it pathetic that you have more of a problem with a Catholic prayer than with an entire nation seeing fit to legitimize homosexual molestation of 14-year-old boys?
Get the plank out of your eye.

Your opinions are misguided as one would expect outside the Magisterium of the Church. But I thank you for the charity you exhibit in trying to share truth as you conceive of it from your personal interpretation of the Scriptures. God bless!
