Pls help According to the Christian Church, what is Purgatory?

Question 3 options:

Purgatory is the physical place where the people can purge their worldly belongings to be ready to become monks or nuns.

Purgatory is living with illness, disease or poverty while on Earth so that after you die you go straight to Heaven.

Purgatory is the spiritual place where you can make a choice about what happens next.

Purgatory is the spiritual place after death where sinners are punished for their sins to be purified for Heaven.

According to the all-knowing Googs:

"Purgatory, the condition, process, or place of purification or temporary punishment in which, according to medieval Christian and Roman Catholic belief, the souls of those who die in a state of grace are made ready for heaven."

To me, that sounds a heck of a lot like A--"Purgatory is the physical place where the people can purge their worldly belongings to be ready to become monks or nuns."

But if you don't think it's A, and want more information, then so help me I will scour the Googs until I have the answer you seek!

the answer is: the sesquicentennial of the american civil war is an occasion to consider the legacy of that great conflict. this legacy is our inheritance, and despite many indelible features, we continue to negotiate the resolution of that conflict. the civil war was fought over slavery, but not always on behalf of slaves
