Am I going to Hell?

[Juan_Bottom]

As defined by the Catholic Dictionary:

The place or condition in which the souls of the just are purified after death and before they can enter heaven. They may be purified of the guilt of their venial sins, as in this life, by an act of contrition deriving from charity and performed with the help of grace. This sorrow does not, however, affect the punishment for sins, because in the next world there is no longer any possibility of merit. The souls are certainly purified by atoning for the temporal punishments due to sin by their willing acceptance of suffering imposed by God. The sufferings in purgatory are not the same for all, but proportioned to each person's degree of sinfulness. Moreover, these sufferings can be lessened in duration and intensity through the prayers and good works of the faithful on earth. Nor are the pains incompatible with great peace and joy, since the poor souls deeply love God and are sure they will reach heaven. As members of the Church Suffering, the souls in purgatory can intercede for the persons on earth, who are therefore encouraged to invoke their aid. Purgatory will not continue after the general judgment, but its duration for any particular souls continues until it is free from all guilt and punishment. Immediately on purification the soul is assumed into heaven. (Etym. Latin purgatio, cleansing, purifying.)

It may be important to note that I see no Biblical reference for this...

No Hell doesn't exist. It's just a threat that religion made up to support itself. God is all knowing, all powerful, but he needs donations. All the time. Therefore, he made up hell to get people scared enough to try to buy their way out of it.

[Victor Sullivan]

you forgot the option: "No, because God loves you and has forgiven you." and the option: "IDK, it's up to God entirely."

Does God forgive everyone?

What's the point of Hell then?

Choice. What kind of loving person would force you to go his way?

I thought Purgatory was created so that Jesus and Noah have somewhere to vacation while Moses does his annual rendition of the play "Grease".

If we're talking strictly biblical, then yes. Moses makes a damn fine Travolta.

The one who killed everybody on earth but Noah and his family?


Oh wait, he was "sorrz" after that, right?

No. He didn't regret killing everyone.

That's some good morals to live by: "Kill others and don't regret it because I love you!"

Think of war BBS - are there not just wars, not just causes for killing others?

Logic dictates that that pretty much always happens.

That was the best use of "logic dictates" in quite some time.

Sure, if you can justify that your God told you to do so, then it works out fine for those destroy people and their wealth.

Please specify what is a just cause for killing others.

What is an "infinite being"? How exactly does the "infiniteness" manifest itself?

I was going to post something very similar to this but then I didn't because I thought it would be too predictable.

Nice scapegoatism. I suspect most people think its OK to kill someone trying to kill you/your family/friends, etc.

The trick is whether you limit that to just immediate threats or you perceive some other "extended" issues to be a true threat. Some people consider anything from refusal to allow someone to practice their religion to requirin gyou to accept rules you dislike to percieved threats to your ability to earn a living to be "true threats" just as much as someone holding a knife against their throats.

Some people are also retarded. Just throwing that out there, letting the wind take it wherever it blows, and it pretty much blows everwhere there are people.

[Timminz]

Yes, you're going to hell.



And you're going to enjoy yourself, dagnabbit!

If it is so obvious, then why did both of you take such pains to claim its about God.. not the more general ideas of threats.

There's a time to mess around, and a time to be serious.

You're just full-on serious 100% of the time. It's boring.

I don't necessarily believe that hell exists. If it does then we're all experiencing it right now.

I don't think I mentioned God. I'm pretty sure I only implied that you were retarded, but followed that up with a big 'it's ok, you're not the only one' hug, so bygonzies, k?

I don' even know what you guys are a-talkin' 'bout. I am selling stairways to hell though, if you're interested?
