In other words, you are your own authority for your interpretations of scripture. Its laughable to claim that the Holy Spirit guided you to interpret scripture correctly. Laughable.

How do you know the scipture you are using is truly inspired since it was compiled by Rome? The authority you reject?

As to the saints, I will say this: How can anyone even take you seriously when you have no authority for scripture but yourself? I've explained it to you, but you don't accept it because you're determined to paint us as idol worshipers. We've been through the discussion of intercession and you choose not to get it. I already said the prayer is "to" the saint, but it is akin to asking a favor, not "worship." That you choose to continually ignore that is telling.

I liked your characterization of "crap" better. Nevertheless, if you have the Authority, then it should become plainly obvious in our present question--prayer to the saints as being scriptural--as you will shortly slaughter us in the discussion.

Your one and only problem is that you aren't. Your view is getting spanked hard.

Objective analysis and having spiritual eyes and ears! BTW the Bible was "compiled" by the Holy Spirit. I bet your answer is because someone said so. Pity for you.

I already said the prayer is "to" the saint....

And I'm still waiting for you to justify this Biblically. You RC's made the claim that "Prayer to the Saints.... is Scriptural." It is beginning to look like this is a fantasy land theology just like your Trinity doctrine.

That you choose to continually ignore that is telling.

Ahem, you need to post some scripture first. Please start with a refutation of OP's last post on the subject. Oh, and like I said, feel free to pray to mouldy green cheese if you want. I care not. Just don't claim it's Biblical when it is not. That is akin to weeing on my foot and telling me it's raining.
