Purgatory Sounds Like A Time Period Where We Wait! Should The Category: Time Period Be Added? Any Thoughts Empty2005 22:49, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

I dunno if it really appies because it's speculation, I mean like I said in my edit summary, I would of probably enjoyed levelling both barrels of Biblical Fundamentalism at the idea of purgatory because the extrapolation for this believe is contradictory to all sorts of biblical ideas and the nature of God, this has the capability to turn into quite the article debate-wise :/.

Actually, I think Purgatory is outside time, but not eternal. Although the doctrine speaks of time served, it's really a matter of equivalent punishment. So, you could spend a million years in Purgatory in less than a million years.

Confused yet? This really needs attention from a Catholic. As a Lutheran, I can't say much about Purgatory, except that the 95 theses were as much against Purgatory as they were against indulgences. Archola 23:32, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
