Scripture forbids SUMMONING spirits or the dead. Catholics never do that. Prayers addressed “to” Mary or other saints are not adoration, but requests for prayers.
You are stuffed full of Protestant propaganda. You believe that Catholics believe things they don’t believe, and do things they don’t do.
Protestants propagandized against devotion to the saints because they wished to ransack the monasteries and churches, which they did all over Europe and in England. The result was a century of debauchery and war.
There isn’t a smidgen of evidence in Scripture for the ugly, repulsive doctrine that my mother, who loved me and prayed for me all my life, is now a doorstop.
And there isn't a smidgen of evidence that anyone teaches that as a doctrine or believes that. Where you got that from one can only imagine.
So false accusations trying to make others look bad is a great indicator of desperation in trying to defend the indefensible.
Nonsense.
A simply google search will bring up "About 64,200,000 results (0.40 seconds)" many of which are prayers TO Mary for things, asking her to do for the petitioner what only God is capable of doing.
Two such examples.

Prayer to Mary Help of Christians
Most Holy and Immaculate Virgin, Help of Christians, we place ourselves under your motherly protection. Throughout the Churchs history you have helped Christians in times of trial, temptation and danger. Time and time again, you have proven to be the Refuge of sinners, the Hope of the hopeless, the Consoler of the afflicted, and the Comforter of the dying. We promise to be faithful disciples of Jesus Christ, your Son, to proclaim His Good News of Gods love for all people, and to work for peace and justice in our world. With faith in your intercession, we pray for the Church, for our family and friends, for the poor and abandoned, and all the dying. Grant, O Mary, Help of Christians, the graces of which we stand in need. (Mention your intentions.) May we serve Jesus with fidelity and love until death. Help us and our loved ones to attain the boundless joy of being forever with our Father in heaven. Amen.

NOW you want to use Scripture?
There isnt a smidgen of evidence in Scripture for the ugly, repulsive doctrine that Jesus' mother can do ANYTHING to help Catholics on this earth.
