The Good thief apparently did not go through purgatory at all. Why should he? He confessed his sin, did the good work of defending the innocent man, and died a good Catholic death.

More catholic nonsense.

The thief died 300 years before the first catholic appeared on the scene.

They weren’t catholics then, they were real followers of Yeshua.

That is correct because there's no such thing or place as purgatory. Did his execution for theft expiate the temporal punishments due all his OTHER sins or did his simple faith in Jesus Christ as Savior satisfy the sin debt God demands?
