There is a popular view that “heaven” will be on “earth,” after our planet has been purged by fire at the end of time. This theory is wholly without merit and results from a failure to understand the symbolic nature of several passages of scripture.

The Catholic Church teaches two errors with reference to Mary’s alleged sinlessness:
