We just ask the saints to intercede on our behalf with the Divine.

Praying to Saints and Mary is one of the big reasons I don't understand Catholicism. If God is omnipotent, why pray to others to help you? I'm not saying don't pray, but just go to the source.

God CAN do anything he wants. He has free will, and makes decisions. His decisions are based, in part, on what people ask him to do.

Sure, that's one definition. "Directing prayers to N entities" for N>1 is another. My broader point is that a strict and clear definition of monotheism/polytheism is hard, not really provable one way or the other, and everybody wants one that makes them the monotheist.

it's not "one definition." It's what the Catholic Church teaches.
