What Bible verse says that we are to pray to the Holy Spirit? This "fella" is absolutely correct.

Nowhere does he say that we are to build idols. I suppose that the sections of Luke that deal with Mary are verboten to you. The Mother of God; all generations will call me blessed; and verses like that obviously mean other than what they obviously mean, right? We venerate, we have great respect for, we don't worship.

"2Ti 3:16 All scripture, inspired of God, is profitable to teach, to reprove, to correct, to instruct in justice:
2Ti 3:17 That the man of God may be perfect, furnished to every good work."

It certainly does clear things up. It says ALL SCRIPTURE, not just the portions that you are quoting today. And it says that the man of God should try to be perfect...IN EVERY GOOD WORK. Yeah, every good work. I understand that it's tough being a Biblical cherry picker, taking things out of context, especially when you get called on it time after time. And it especially does not say that Scripture is all. It actually makes the case against that point, and rather well.

Every conclusion, supported by overwhelming Biblical and Church Father evidence is rejected by you. Biblical arguments are reduced by you to gainsaying and duelling Scriptural verses. You reject the 10 Commandments as being irrelevant. Do you consider yourself a Christian? If so, why?

Other verses like that...What, can you count them on one finger???

Luk 11:27 And it came to pass, as he spake these things, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice, and said unto him, Blessed is the womb that bare thee, and the paps which thou hast sucked.

Did you notice the crowd that this woman stepped out from???

Luk 11:29 And the multitudes running together, he began to say: This generation is a wicked generation. It asketh a sign: and a sign shall not be given it, but the sign of Jonas the prophet.

This woman steps out from a crowd of wicked people, some filled with unclean spirits and says Blessed be Mary...And what was the response???

Luk 11:28 But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.

The regular saved sinner is MORE BLESSED than your Queen of Heaven, the Mother of God...

You stated most Protestants pray to the Holy Spirit...I've never seen it...Give us some examples...

I understand that it's tough being a Biblical cherry picker, taking things out of context, especially when you get called on (accused of) it time after time.

I helped you be a little more accurate...
