News flash: Purgatory hasn’t disappeared after Vatican II

I know this might come as a shock, but Purgatory didn’t magically disappear after Vatican II, even if some priests have said as much. Yesterday, a parishioner asked me, “I thought we didn’t believe in Purgatory any more?” Sorry, we still believe it’s there, and we need to pray for those priests who hopefully will spend a long time finding out that Purgatory really does exist. I say “hopefully” because spreading a denial of the faith can have far more serious eternal consequences.
