Gee, it crashed and burned in so many other places according to your side ... which no doubt accounts for the changing of subject.

So every timesomenon-Catholicsays “pray for me,” what they really mean is “pray with me”? That’s the argument now? That’s the crash and burn du jour?

You yourself say you ask metmom to pray for you, and then say you don’t mean it?

And people complain about how WE use language?

Now for some facts. When I ask a saint in heaven to pray for me,I also address petitions on the same matter to God. So what, exactly, is the difference as regards intercession?

I didn't realize I was communicating so poorly...Metmon didn't seem to have a problem understanding what I said...

The dictionary term for intercessor is to act as a mediator...I don't need a mediator...I don't ask any one to be an intercessor for me (except for the Holy Spirit) since no one has that ability and I don't need it anyway......I do not accept as biblical (or true) that any saint or Saint is an intercessor for anyone...

I of course love for other Christians to pray TO GOD for me but never as a mediator between me and Jesus (God)...There is no such thing...
