Is it common for Protestants, or those in your pile on, to reject or diminish intercessory prayer?

No, but we pray FOR the living, not TO the dead or FOR the dead.

we pray FOR the living,

Do you? Why?

Your posts indicate you don't believe in intercessions or at least their efficacy. You post such as: "Both Jesus and the Holy Spirit are making intercession for us believers before God Himself. It doesn't get any better than that." Previous posts of yours posit the same point about our intercessions.

Does this post, the post I replied to not concern the living as well? If so, why then do you pray for the living?
