"Catholic encyclopedia sounds a lot like the baltimore catechism huh?"

Tip-toe around it all you like and cite any second or third hand interpretation you like. I posted what the actual Catechism of the Catholic Church says about Purgatory. I realize that you failed miserably in your first encounter with the Catechism and that self-catechesis is not very effective, but spouting what you do about it only makes you look goofy and disingenuous.

Strangely, I find more Catechism references to Purgatory than those you posted. If I were a suspicous person it would be easy to suspect a carefully selected portion of the Catechism meant to bolster your position. But, no, that couldn't be possible could it? It would make you look goofy and disingenuous.
