Is hell an eternal place and do the unsaved burn in hell forever?
Hell is a concept in the Christian and Islamic religions, but not in Judaism. For Christians and Muslims, the unsaved do burn in hell forever.

Hell is therefore not an eternal place and there is no punishment in the afterlife.

What is the difference between purgatory and hell?
That depends on what your view of hell is. If hell is the place of fiery torment, then you've come to the right place! Hell, it is believed by Catholics etc, is where you go if you've led a bad life - a place of eternal fiery torment. However, purgatory is like a crossroad between heaven and hell - a bit like a junction where you go when you die. Your good deeds and bad deeds are compared and it is "decided" whether you go to heaven or hell.
One of the core beliefs of Calvinism is the idea of predestination?
Yes! John Calvin was an ardent defender of a high view of God's sovereignty. By implication, he had a high view of predestination. By this view, God decides (i.e., foreordains) who will be saved (i.e., who will go to Heaven) and who will not be saved (i.e., who will go to Hell). It is implied that both Heaven and Hell were ultimate realities in the mind of John Calvin.

Do monkeys go to hell?
Assuming that there is a Heaven and a Hell, which all believers do, the following answer is Theologically correct from the Christian point of view. No, monkeys do not go to hell. The reason is that only humans have souls, and without souls monkeys can neither go to heaven nor hell. The position of the Catholic Church is that even if people evolved millions of years ago, the faithful are to believe that Adam and Eve were the first to have souls. There is a huge philosophical debate amongst Theologians about this because in the Bible, there are descriptions of animals that are found in Heaven, most notably in the book of Revelations. This has opened up a Theological "can of worms" so to speak, in that many faithful people have pets that they love dearly, and they are worried that their pets won't be in heaven with them. The correct Theological response to this question is that God will block certain memories from our minds when we are in Heaven, thus we will not miss our pets, nor will we miss any of our loved ones here on earth that do not make it into Heaven either. We will simply not know that the missing people ever existed.
