I've seen Catholics defend the practice on the grounds that it's essentially like asking people in your church to pray for you, which is one thing. Making it efficacious for salvation, however, indicates a corrupted soteriology, which is itself heresy
To not understand Origen’s ties (and Alexandrian Platonism’s) to Pelagius is to show very little familiarity with the history of the debate

I understand the ties. I reject the notion that what is polemically called pelagianism has anything do with the form of thinking which Augustine countered.
