i love the idea of purgatory. my understanding is that is was inserted into catholic doctrine as a fund raising tool for the church. there is something amazingly bold and inventive about that. a whole other level of existence canonized to raise money. and purgatory doesn't seem that bad. i suppose its no heaven, but then again its no hell. probably pretty boring but if you are the type of person that can entertain themselves than you would be just fine. sort of like living in delaware. not the most exciting state in the union, but by no means the worst. and like purgatory, eventually you can move.
