Forgiveness of our sins and consequences for our actions are two different things. It is because of God’s mercy that we are not consumed.


Exactly!

So...why won’t the Catholics see the light and realize God won’t make them spend thousands of years in torture to “purge” them of their sins?

Because we can red the Bible. You might consider trying that some time.

Based on how Catholics are obsessed with suffering and how God wants us to suffer and how we are to offer up our suffering to Him for whatever reason it is that none of them can ever make clear, their God is a cruel God.
