Well, that was one of its practices. So if you look at the Catholic, like, history of purgatory, the kind of, like, official idea— it basically says, Catholics, we don't know. The Pope would say, we don't know what it is.

They tend to try to say it's not a physical place where these souls end up, right? But they don't know what it is. Is it a spiritual place? They tend to say it's a state of mind or a state of being. So I would look at it like a state of being for the soul.

Yeah, like a realm, like another dimension or something like that. We would call it, like when you and I talk, I'd say... Sean, it's another dimension. You know, it's another dimension. My soul hopefully will go there. You know, I'm not saying I'm good enough to get into heaven, right? But I'm hoping for purgatory kind of thing. Because I believe in the soul. I also want to say this, that...

I should have said this earlier, that the things that I'm going to say are my own opinion based on what I've studied and how I've lived, and they don't reflect my university. So my university is a state university. It's not going to be, you know, I won't be publishing a peer-reviewed paper talking about the reality of the soul, but I believe in it. So I'm a believer, absolutely.

Probably not like it's described by the Catholic Church. I believe that the soul continues. And I believe that what—and by the way, this is based on not just what I see in Catholicism. I do comparative religious studies. So I've read stuff from ancient Egypt, and I've read stuff from Hinduism, right? You know, and Buddhism, things like that.

What almost everything I read about within these religions and people too that I've spoken with. So, you know, I have a lot of friends who have PhDs in various fields. And I ask them, you know, about what they know about this. It appears that this even goes back to Plato, by the way, and Socrates. This is the Greek tradition, the philosophical tradition. What happens to a soul after it dies?

you know, after the body dies, is determined largely by what one does in one's life. So I take that very seriously.
