My favorite are the newspaper ads:

“Thank you St. Jude - for prayers answered”.

1) It’s one thing to say that only God the father answers prayers, as he is sovereign over all events and affairs of men; not the deceased.

2) It’s one thing to say that we have only one intercessor to God the Father, and that is Jesus Christ.

3) It’s one thing to say that dead people can’t hear you, nor respond to your prayers.

It’s entire something new to suggest that they read the newspaper from beyond the grave. Just sort of takes RCC idolatry to a whole new level!

INDEED.

Sounds like ABUSE-OF-SAINTS, to me.

I mean, requiring them during their eternal rest to read the MSM!

I’d think that was more a requirement of hell!
