Catholics pray to Saints sometimes.  Are you saying they're not Christians?  Eh.  Not my problem.  I will revere that great lady without a second thought about Christian sectarian squabbling, if that's what you're trying to dredge up here.  Have enough of that to deal with in my own faith.

PS: try not to come off so self-righteous.  I believe the Messiah (alayhis-Salaam) cautioned that 'a contrite heart' was the preferred attitude for those seeking forgiveness.
