I don’t understand it though, the Bible is extremely clear on that.
The Catholic Church has made a lot of progress in the last few hundred years, but still diverges from the Bible in a few key areas. Older people in the Church still seem to believe that their departed loved ones are serving long stretches in Purgatory. It’s a holdover from the days when the Church would sell indulgences (which is the biggest single reason WHY there are Protestants today)
