You ask other people to pray for you, right?

Right. We ask living people to pray FOR us, we do not pray TO them to pray for us, we do not pray TO dead people to pray for us.

What is your definition of prayer?

My definition is dialogue between God and people, especially His people.

Talking to dead people is necromancy which the bible forbids.

It's far from necromancy. Praying to peole in heaven (saints) who have great spiritual grace to help pray for us is simply smart.
