[Conservative til I die]

Sounds like you just don't like the content of the propaganda, otherwise why sneak in the comment about "what does the Bible say..."

[Psalm 73]

Um, if there are other routes to salvation, (ie: praying someone into heaven who has already died), that means that something besides the death and Ressurection of Jesus Christ can save us.
If I do not accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour while on earth, can YOUR prayers give me salvation?.
As the thief was dying on the cross next to Jesus, he accepted Christ as his Saviour, and Jesus replied: "Today you will be with Me in Paradise."
Notice He said TODAY, not next year if enough prayers are said for you, or candles are lit for you - his faith in the Blood of Jesus was enough for that man's salvation.
"By faith you have been saved, and not by works, lest anyone should boast......."

Well, you see, our Protestant friend thought he was going to put little ol' me over a barrel with the Purgatory-Scripture crack, but he don't know who he's tangling with. :)

As you can see, he immediately dropped that line of commentary when I pointed out that most of his "sola scriptura" beliefs aren't. All of a sudden, he switched to deriding my credentials - fake Scriptural arguments suddenly transformed into ad hominem attack. I'm waiting to see what the next iteration will be. Protestants, like the Democrats they spawned, are quite amusing.
