"Do you not believe, teach and state that God deprived humanity of His Grace? That we are born without Grace because God punished our ancestral parents?"

No.

"Do you not believe, teach and state that our sins can be "paid off" with indulgencies, and that the departed souls in the Purgatory are subject to physical pain that lasts until God is satisfied?"

No.

"Is the Immaculate Conception dogma not based on the concept of our "original sin" and God's "punishment" of death?"

No.

"The entire concept of an angry God is wholly a western product that has no place in the East."

Again, a caricature.

So you deny that the RCC teaches we are born deprived of Grace because of God's punishment?

You also deny that the RCC teaches that in the Purgatory the unrepented sins are "paid off" with indulgencies, and that deprated souls are in physical and spiritual torment until God is satisfied?

Interesting.
