Today in class I caught up on all I missed yesterday, but we spent most of the period learning about Purgatory and the difference between the Catholic & Lutheran Church. It kind of makes me mad when people talk against the beliefs of the Catholic Church. However, i can see why many would see Purgatory USED as a scam. I believe God is merciful and that Purgatory is a balance of hell & heaven as you await your fate in life. However, giving money to the Catholic Church does not get their family into Heaven while stuck in Purgatory. I think that is a load of crap, I think if God sees good in the person and tried there best then he would be merciful. Praying for your family ultimately does more for them if stuck in Purgatory then paying money
