We seem to have two schools of thought here on Catholicism, the BK School and the Ming School. I probably should have written the Ming school first since no one really thinks BK is a real catholic except Nikolai and I haven't seen him around lately.

Anyway, my question is what if a child molester priest went to Purgatory. Could another catholic pray him into Heaven?

According to the AAHZ-Theoryâ„¢ no. Only YHWH and his senior archangels themselves determine who joins them in The Great War. and a child molester would be...

Unfit for duty.

Yes - if the priest were irredeemable then he'd be in hell instead of purgatory

[ZEE]

Purgatory doesn't exist. I assumed Kidicious meant Hell in my answer.

You really should learn how to embed. it has moar effect.

Also to further my point... once a soul is in Hell it is out of YHWH's hands unless he sends an Angel down to... retrieve them.

Satan is a god too... and a soul in his domain is HIS SOUL to do with whatever he wishes.

But I can only assume you all want to take this thrade to 50 pages of meaningless and counterproductive Bible quotes. Tune in to the AAHZ-Thrade™ for how things really work. But I know that change is hard... you all will resist the truth.

I asked Google maps for directions from Purgatory to Heaven, and it couldn't help. Don't think praying will help.

If you can pray people into heaven doesn't that make everyone redeemable?

But I can't post in your thrade until I get a new phone.

So, can I ask you a question? According to you, is it easy or hard to get into heaven (assuming I'm correct that you believe that you can work your way to heaven).

No. Not this thread plz.

You can only pray people into heaven if they're in purgatory, not hell

As for everybody being redeemable, I believe that canon is that hell / damnation is eternal

Do some people go straight to hell? What do you have to do to go straight to hell?

Mortal sins such as murder get you sent to hell if you fail to make reconciliation for them. Veniel sins aka "minor" sins get you sent to purgatory instead

What if Satans army of evil at Armageddon would consist of lots of children?
Wouldn't child molesting priests in this case be considered especially fit for duty?
