So God's not allowed to let a person hear two voices at once? Why not?
Why do we assume the foundation of the argument is why not? rather than Why?
Either way we presume to know the Mind of God, right?
This doesn't seem to me to be so much different than "gifts of the spirit" like interpretation of speaking in tongues, which the Bible says God gives to some people.
Only that this was not given as one of the gifts? And which is based on presumption rather than scripture. (or history if you don't like abiding by scripture alone) I've not found any accepted teachings from the disciples, or early church fathers condoning the method....and yes, I acknowledge i've not read them all.....
And just for argument's sake, say a saint could only hear one prayer at a time. How would this make the Catholic position wrong? You'd still have saints hearing prayers and passing them on to God.
Only if you are willing to accept that there is an imaginary line in which everyone offering up prayers to the saints must first take a #. Otherwise, you have thousands of prayers going up continuiously to often times the same saint....if he hears only one at a time then it would imply that many are not being heard? and therefore no intercession is being made? Right?
I'm still not seeing the conflict.
