I realize that Catholics do have to believe that one can contact the dead.
Their whole system of praying to dead saints depends on it.
Otherwise, they might have to actually, ***gasp*** depend on praying to the Father alone in Jesus’ name as Jesus commanded us, and trust HIM to answer their prayers Himself.
And who knows where that would get them?
Everyone knows that God wouldn’t do something like that without scads of dead people pestering Him about it.
Oh, cut it out. If I ask you to pray for me is that wrong?
As usual metmom, you make an argument.
