Thank you for the comments. Fr. Barron speaks of everything, perhaps. It's easy to say the sun's yellow and provides us warmth. Explaining why it its a necessary part of life is the difficult part. What escapes me is the essence of prayer for or from a soul after having already been judged by God at the point of their earthly death. The funny thing is, I do pray for my deceased family members,if nothing more but because I care for them. How it helps them is something I simply do not understand..

@odo324 It explains everything. THey are in heaven. We connect to them with prayer. It is as if they are in another country, and we both have telephones. But ours is the only one that can dial out.

@WorkOverTime Necromany is raising the dead up from the grave. We pray FOR them so that they may enter into the kingdom of heaven. We also pray to them so that they can pray for us on God's behaf, or just so they can hear us from the Kingdom of God.

There is no life after death.

According to Catholicism, is there a difference between praying for the dead and necromancy? Both seem to be forms of communication with the dead, but necromancy tends to have a connotation of magic or witchcraft associated with it that I don't think the Catholic Church would agree with.

Summery: "We maintain a connection with the dead though prayer." -- That doesn't really explain much of anything. An elaboration would be quite helpful in understanding what this connection is and why.
