Becoming God
from Musings of a Middle Aged Man · host David Olson
Since Limbo is no longer de rigueur in the Catholic canon and the simple fact I've been baptized twice so could never be eligible for the imaginary place of natural happiness for those who died without personal sin, I can only conclude I have been banished to a state of perpetual purgatory for my soul will never be purified. Unlike the slippery Catholic doctrine defining purgatory as a state of purification existing somewhere between heaven and hell, my purgatory is in the here and now. An aura forming a nimbus fully encasing my present with tentacles into the future-past and the past-future.
