In all due respect, why is a belief in purgatory not a statement that the "Blood" is not sufficient (which of course It is)? Not asking for a flame, just looking for an honest answer.

None of you guys believes in reincarnation (multiple times) either although that provides an equally understandable alternative to the "question" of where the "dead" go until Judgment Day.
My own questions do not lie along that line though ~ rather, now that we know God set up a universe with quantum physics (among other things) in it, why should we worry all that much about why or why not God would admit an "imperfect" soul to Heaven? Like how would He know, eh?! It's pretty obvious these days He's simply not into "perfect forms" and other concepts of the Ancient Greeks.

Great response! He loves us either in spite of our flaws or because of them or, maybe, both. Life is a lot like modern art...and God is nothing if not the ultimate Artiste.

My guess...no one knows...and anyone who says they know is not truthful, so if one believes, just believe and don't worry about it...that's my take...
WEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee 7 days until triptophan coma!!!!
Sorry, long day....
Blessings in Christ...
