Kinda reminds me of an assembly line in a factory. We know that the saved in heaven will receive rewards of some kind for the various works they've done for the glory of God - rewards (crowns, gold, silver, precious stones) that are, at the end, laid back at the feet of Jesus because he is worthy of all glory and honor, majesty and praise. I wonder if the more famous or popular saints - as you described them - will get extra rewards based on how many prayers they process? Doesn't seem all that fair, though, since all they are supposedly doing is receiving the request, stamping their “ok” on it and sending it off to the Big Guy. Think they divvy out the intercessory prayers up there, just to keep up and make sure everyone stays busy? /sarc :o)

Funny, I thought Scripture said that there is only ONE mediator.

1 Timothy 2:5 For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,

ONE mediator between God and man.
