Agree...I have no problems accepting prophets...It is part of my faith...everyone needs guidance in 1 form or another...My question is why and how from dead people?
Now my understanding:
You have a prophet/ guru guiding you through the forest and teaching you all his skills (holy scriptures ...giving you map and survival points, tips) as you go ...suddenly he is dead (not with you) will you ask a dead body to protect you from animals? or will you utilize the knowledge he gave and continue going on?
Just my 2 cents!
As far as my minimal understanding goes, once a holy prophet/guru takes birth, it is for a specific reason god has sent them. Once they are "dead", their mysterious influence does not end If at all that is the case, then what is the difference between your death, my death and that of the holy prophet's? Their life is an example for us to learn and follow to the extent possible without deviating from the path they have shown us. . Sai baba of shirdi, who calls himself as a fakir and still accepts hindu form of worship, says that whatever your problems might be, their answers will be given from his samadhi(grave). And since he always chants "Allah Malik", I'm sure he cannot be wrong.
And pardon my lack of writing abilities. Actually, I have a lot of things to say but I'm just unable to put it into sentences.
