But, remember, this is what Catholics believe in. To them, it\'s not \"Biblical or Bust\", so to speak. When they pray to Mary, I don\'t think of it as them using another mediator between God and man. They are asking her to also pray to God, like the way you would ask one of your friends to pray for you. The part that\'s a little bit sketchy and causes the controversy, is the fact that she isn\'t alive physically, and that you supposedly cant pray to someone who is dead. I think they aren\'t praying TO them, but asking Mary to pray to God FOR them. I believe, because every person is still alive in the spirit, there\'s no reason why they can\'t hear someone\'s request for help, or in this case, a request for Mary to pray for them. I don\'t think you quit praying when you go to heaven, and that\'s why I think it\'s ok to ask Mary to pray for you. This is a matter of opinion. It\'s a belief. As for whether it\'s right or wrong? I can\'t answer that. And neither can anyone else. You just have to search your heart and pray about it. Everyone has their own prayers. This is a Catholic prayer. And with prayers, it\'s not for anyone to say whether its right or wrong, because no one except for God can answer that. And I mean no one. Also, just saying, I don\'t think everything has to be in the bible for it to be \"right\". What if God Himself gave you a message that you normally think of as \"not Biblical\". What would you do then? Ignore it because it isn\'t in the bible? I wouldn\'t.
