For the Orthodox this was OK because they don't believe in purgatory, but one has to wonder if the Catholic Popes had to sit in the neather-gloom until they patch up their differences Tell me, HD, what do the Orthodox believe happens to the souls? Do the Orthodox and the Cathlolics have memorial services? Do they believe that the souls get purified? Do they believe the souls are "uncomfortable?" Do they pray for the souls?
What's it to you how the Catholics and Orthodox worship, or how they pray, or what they believe? Are you here to learn or are you here to be a troll?

Actually the original intent of this thread was to point out to my Protestant brethren how the argument of "free will" is a Catholic doctrine. Little did I realize that it would end up 7,900+ posts later with me arguing to the Catholics and Orthodox.

I'm not sure what precisely a troll is-but it must not be a good thing. One thing is fact, I have learned a lot from this thread.
