Baptist Purgatory

Few things are more frightening to a traveler than having to go through Chicago's O'Hare Airport. There's nothing else quite like it.


It is infamous for its flight delays. It is overrun with people. There is no place to sit down alone, no privacy permitted, and no place to sit down and leisurely eat two pretzel dogs purchased at Auntie Anne's.


Any preacher who does not believe in Purgatory has obviously never been through O'Hare. And yet, even with all this said, the truth is, O'Hare is a vital link in our USA transportation grid. Without it, much of the business and tourist industry would have to shut down. I dread it, but am grateful for it.
