@Johnny6203 What led you to believe purgatory is hellish? That's not doctrine. Also, purgatory is temporary -- it's purgation, which means you can leave it. And as far as I know, it only empties upward -- meaning souls in purgatory eventually reach heaven! — PolitiTweet.org

@BernieUpstateNY the risen Christ calls out to Mary Magdalene by name — I've always thought that was so enchanting, that even in his full glory, God wants to speak to us intimately like that, as people, individuals, not as an undifferentiated mass. So yes! God knows her name — PolitiTweet.org

@LaraHReid i think you're perfectly right to be angry about it. i also think human suffering completely sucks. this isn't an insignificant matter in Christian theology, but i do think it's one with some compelling discussion around it, is all. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig

@Johnny6203 Yes, God loves them. In the Christian faith we believe God's greatest act of passion for human kind was an incarnate intervention specifically to ransom us from death and return to us our patrimony: Eternal life in the Kingdom of Heaven — PolitiTweet.org
