A prayer to a saint is a request for his intercession to the sole mediator Christ.

Going to the "one ('sole') mediator" via "another mediator/intercessor/middle man" contradicts and ultimately negates Scripture.

If so, kindly cite it, because 1 Timothy 2 surely is not contradicted as that speaks of intercessory prayer in the same breath in which it proclames the sole mediatorship of Christ.
