demiurgentEric: So... the Catholic Church is re-emphasizing--
Weds: Plenary indulgences. Yes. I know.
Eric: But... wait. Plenary indulgences reduce your time in Purgatory. They have no impact on Hell.
Weds: And?
Eric: Didn't they abolish the very concept of Purgatory like a year ago?
Weds: It's back. In Pog form.
