So the pope made a big announcement this week: he has officially removed "limbo".
Basically for Catholics there are different places you can go when you die- obviously there is Heaven and Hell. Then there is purgatory- you go there if you have not been quite good enough for the one and not bad enough for the other. Than there is limbo- that is where the unbaptized babies go. They are innocent in the eyes of the church but since they were never recognized in the church they aren't "worthy".
It is this fear of "limbo" that has caused women for centuries to baptize their children as quickly as possible- especially prior to the 20th century since there was such a high mortality rate among infants.
But after all these years of the different stages- created by "GOD"- the pope has now ruled that this place does not exist. But people- how can a place suddenly not exist? How cold a man suddenly change what God created? Could it be- just maybe- that the place never existed in the first place?! That all religion was created by man to suit their whims?! Just asking....
