The Underground Railroad wasn't a real railroad, but a network of courageous people who helped slaves secretly travel from the South to the North. In 1850, President Fillmore signed the Fugitive Slave Act, which made it illegal to help a slave run away and required officials to return escaped slaves to their owners.

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

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

Explanation:

In the Christian context, Purgatory is the world between the living and the dead where the souls of dead people are kept or taken. And it is here that the souls are "purged" or purified to be eligible to enter Heaven.

But not all sections of Christianity believe in Purgatory. Protestants, in particular, did not believe in it due to the fact that the sacrifice of Jesus Christ on the cross was the greatest 'purification' needed to get to heaven. Moreover, they argued that there is no Biblical evidence to support the existence of purgatory.

Thus, according to the Christian Church, purgatory is the spiritual place after death that punishes and purifies sinners to get to Heaven.
