If you think that some people will be resurrected to Purgatory to be healed before entering paradise and wish to wager on it,

I am taking wagers here. This OP is NOT about whether some people will be resurrected to the Purgatory to be healed before entering paradise. I'm assuming you think some will. This post focuses on wagering on what you believe.

Let proposition P1 = Some people will be resurrected to the Purgatory to be healed before entering paradise.

P2 = not P1.

Between 0 and 10, how much weight do you put on each of the above propositions? The stronger your belief in a proposition, the higher the weight. Your weighting scheme will determine the betting odds.

P1=9.

The reason I didn't put 10 is because I think there will be the occasional saint who might go straight to heaven.

This is not taking into account those who might be lost altogether. They won't go to Purgatory.

I assume you assign a weight of 1 to P2.

How many USD do you want to bet on these odds?

If I had the money I'd bet a million dollars as I am quite sure Purgatory exists, even thought I'm not a gambler.
Actually, you will be betting with your future treasure in heaven. How much of that treasure are you willing to bet in terms of today's USD equivalence?
