SERIOUS ANSWERS ONLY PLEASE. I have been seeing some answers on here that deny the Catholics pray to saints. I was raised a Catholic and I know that in times past it was commmon to pray to Mary. There is a patron saint for lost things, for travel, for animals (pets), etc. You pray with the mention of Peter, "the first apostolic pope". The list could go on.
I want to know when --- by decree -- the Catholic church quit praying to saints. Did this actually happen or is it something that has "gone underground".
Don't give me the answer that you personally do not pray to saints.
That is good if you don't, however we are talking about the "church organization" not the individuals.
