It depends on how theological they are. Some believe that our souls "sleep" until the Resurrection and so are "dead to the world" and all its troubles. Then there is the theory that our souls go straight to God and that we are so busy praising him that we ignore what is happening back on earth. But mostly this is just a flat rejection of Catholic devotion to the Saints, even by people who go to the graveyard and talk to their dead husbands.

I would agree with your statement here, and personally appreciate the anology.
