Please cite a specific verse to back this up.
Prayer is not worship. The etymology of the word argue against this, as at one time "pray" was used in ordinary speech, as in "pray" to mean "ask".
Well, I guess if someone just prays to God to ask Him for things then they probably pray without worship. However, even then, we should not be asking things of people who have died, only of God.
As for Scriptural support for praying only to God, how about the commandment, "thou shalt have no other gods." Honestly idolatry is dealt with so many times in Scripture, it boggles my mind how anyone could think it's okay to pray to anyone other than the Lord.
