that’s the best part! they never got baptized so god sent them to hell. and it’s YOUR FAULT.
ackshually they go to purgatory where they hang out with Diogenes all day
Purgatory is a mathematical absurdity. Any finite number divided by an infinite number of years is nothing. What’s the point of getting 30 years for each of your mortal sins and 15 years for each of your venal sins?
What’s the point of getting 30 years for each of your mortal sins and 15 years for each of your venal sins?
The idea is that you spent a finite time on earth accumulating sin and so you need to spend a proportional time in purgatory to expunge yourself of that sin, before you can move on to Heaven.
But then once you get to Heaven, there’s still a strict hierarchy. The folks exiting purgatory are recognized as “lesser” and do not receive the Members Only Jacket treatment to which the real hustlers and heavy hitters gain access. You join the spiritual proletariat and become one more lumpen mass of ectoplasmic labor.
