“Again - where’s the evidence for your opinion that the Saints are dead and not in heaven?”

I’ve never made that claim.

I’d ask about your evidence about praying to departed saints, but we’ve found nothing but dry wells there...

Well, I’ve already answered your question. It’s in the Apostles’ creed, which we have documented evidence going back to the Fourth century.

You keep assuming that ‘absence of evidence = evidence of absence.

We don’t have an original copy of the Gospels dating back to the first century. So, by your own standards, we have no evidence of a connection between the Apostles and the Gospels.
