Yes, it could be that you are making God angry. Just because your church is old doesn’t mean it’s been absolutely correct all these years.

What evidence do you have that God is or has ever been angry at Catholics and Orthodox for praying to the Saints? On the contrary, Catholic and Orthodox Christians have compiled thousands upon thousands of cases where intercessory prayer has proven effective to a miraculous degree.

If you’d stick to preaching Jesus and get away from the Mariology and some of the other trimmings, you’d be getting it right.

By what authority do you deign to dictate to the Church when it boasts the likes of St. Augustine, St. Jerome, St. John Chrysostom, St. Thomas Aquinas, St. Theresa of Avila, and St. Anthony of Padua among its ranks?

Again, humility is the key. Pride was the greatest sin of all the so called "reformers".

Truth was the greatest sin of the reformers. RCC just didn’t agree with it and did their own thing.

Prayers are answered only by God through His Son. Give HIM the credit for the miraculous.
