Christians: Do you regularly prayer to the Trinity or to the persons of the Trinity other than Jesus (Father and Holy Ghost)?

Jesus or God the Father. I only pray for the holy spirit if I need God's direct intervention.

I never pray to anybody except the Father.

Not even Jesus? Really?

Once again, how do you qualify as CHRISTian if you don't follow CHRIST's divinity

We are instructed to pray to the father in the savior’s name.

Even when I was a baptist we never prayed any other way than that - to the father in the name of Jesus.

Why do Catholics not follow the savior’s direct admonition to pray to the father?

You see, it’s one thing to say “this is what I believe,” but an arrogant thing to say “you don’t believe as I do and so you’re not a Christian.” It’s a perfectly reasonable interpretation of this scripture for people to think we should always pray to the Father. I could do as you do and say Catholics have left the realm of scripture and are no longer Christians. How could they be? They don’t follow clear doctrine.

Col 3:17 says to do everything in Jesus’ name. Other places indicate this too.

God?

the Father? The Trinity? Jesus? God is kind of blanket term in Christianity and not very accurate for the person you are praying to...

Yes, I pray to the Father, calling Him "Abba" (Daddy) just as Yeshua did. I call Jesus "Yeshua" because that is His real Hebrew name.
It is not appropriate to pray to or worship the Holy Spirit, since His role is to bear witness to Yeshua and direct the attention/glory to Him. ✟

Where are we told not to pray to the Holy Spirit or not to invoke Him in prayer?

I pray to The Father in the name of Jesus Christ.

Jesus and the Father are equally God. As is the Holy Spirit
