A: Purgatory is seperate from Earth, a different place.
Now, that's the best I could do, but you can see that most of it is credible, although his 3 and 5 are a little odd maybe. Or I could have misinterpreted and daniel might correct my effort.

To think that there are people out there who would go to such an effort. An effort to clarify and not obfuscate.
Well daniel? Did Lord Shark get it right?

1. Earth is many things to many people, however I will give just one definition. Earth is a 'class 3' planet which is otherwise known as a 'planet of sorrows'. This may be changed in the future though.
2.From the wisdom of the Bhudda and my own reasoning from my experiences I believe it fits all the criteria for a kind of purgatory.
3.(I didn't quite understand your answer). Maybe some pockets of the Earth is free of karma but by and large I see the effects of karma everywhere.
4.(again I dont know why either of you would think this is answering my question) . No it isn,t safe. Safety is an illusion.
5. Yes and No
6.I would like to think I have some idea and since you engage me in my silly little questions you must think I have some idea too. (or are you just trying to convert this poor sinner?)
7.Everything is connectd, even you and I. Only three things separate us: time , space , decision-making.
thnx for your time
