Fictitious Place

The Resume

    (April 33- )
    God's prison
    Betwixt Heaven and the highway to Hell
    Invented by Christians that became the Roman Catholics
    God created it after Jesus died
    Protestants claim it was invented by Pope St. Gregory III (6th century)
    Not mentioned in the bible
    Least discussed death destination
    Despite some belief, TV series Lost is not located here
    Before Purgatory all righteous people went to Limbo (latin for border)

Why Purgatory might be annoying:

    Although God forgives those who sinned, it doesn't mean he can't punish them (damn those mysterious ways).
    No sex or dirty thoughts allowed. No means No!
    It is a hellhole of Venial sinners, aka misdemeanors.
    Like New York City, it is a nice place to visit, but you don't want to live there.
    It is God's waiting room - the magazines are old and tend to be religious propaganda.
    Oh shit! Their are zombies and vampires in here - the freakin undead!
    Some people think Earth is Purgatory.
    Three years for every time you failed to honor your mother and father really adds up.
    I bet you wish you didn't steal that candy bar now.
    Yes, it did go on your permanent record and it really is permanent.
    It is hard to spell.
    Martin Luther, founder of the Protestant movement published 'Denial of Purgatory' (1530). He claims it is the 'Devil's mask.'

    Protestants reject Purgatory. They have gone so far as to label it a corrupt pagan belief.
    Gnostics reject Purgatory because we did enough suffering on Earth, so we go directly to Heaven.
    Heretics reject Purgatory because they feel it is immoral to pray for the dead. The dead need to take responsibility for their own actions.

Why Purgatory might not be annoying:

    It gives people a reason to pray for the dead. If they are in Heaven or Hell, they aren't going anywhere else.
    It is filled with hot Catholic chicks who opted to give blow jobs instead of sex.
    It is not too hot or too cold. Even the porridge is the right temperature.
    The really bad people aren't here. Even better, the really good people aren't here, either.
    If you don't like it, you can always go to Hell.
    You are given a second chance, and this time you know God is real.
    Catholics believe prayers will cut time off the inhabitants and get them to Heaven quicker.
