What's weird about the whole purgatory thing is that it's like Catholics WANT to burn in purgatory for their sins rather than trust Christ to save them.

As I have frequently said, there is the US version of Catholicism, and that of the rest of the world.

Yikes! Have not seen flagellation like that since Ashura 2009 in Iraq!

It’s really pathetic the lengths Catholicism can lead people to act like in their effort to think they can become worthy to receive God’s mercy.
