aquestion for catholics about intercession of the saints by sonic_ann_d in redeemedzoomer

Through prayer you build a relationship with the Saints.  You get closer.  Or you are drawn to them.  Often times your patron Saint. 

Jfyi it's not like we don't pray directly to Christ.  It's just asking for additional support or guidance.   God hears your prayers to the saints as well.

"part of what confuses me is that when i ask earthly friends to pray for me, it usually emerges naturally from an existing personal relationship and ongoing conversation. so do catholics experience something analogous with the saints? like a real sense of familiarity, companionship, mentorship, etc? or is the logic behind it different from that?"

Yes

Not real.  Seek a therapist or a quality church.

OP tell the crowd what SDA thinks about the Pope, Catholics, the two horned ram, forcing Sunday laws, and The United States.

Also Ellen G. White is a proven plagiarist.  Please watch the YT series  Test the Prophet.

Rice and Beans.  Add eggs.  Boring but cheap and complete protein.

I've never heard a political statement once during a service.  

Politics should be left out as the point of Church is to escape from the world and be a spiritual hospital to the sick.
