Anyone else think this a little ridiculous?

Limbo

Okay, I'm a big Church advocate...I go every Sunday and never miss a religious holiday. But this just seems absurd to me. Who woke up this morning and went, "you know what, i think we should get rid of limbo"??????Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Is what I say. For an all knowing and all loving God to punish the sins of his/her parents (sin= they didn't get the child baptised) why should the innocent baby, born sinfree be daned to pergatory for eternity?


NEVER made sense to me.

The priest told us this two years ago when we went for pre-cana.

Totally ridiculous.

I have a different God than the Pople. Mine lets unbaptized babies into heaven.

That's what this pope says too. It;s been talk for years, he just made it papel law (I think that is the right term)

I must still be sleepy - when I first read the OP I was like, what's wrong with limbo? (I was thinking of the limbo dance where you have to go under a stick leaning backwards....oops!)

I think ANYTHING to do with the church is a little ridiculous, so I'm not the best person to answer this question.

It's about time. It was a ridiculous concept to begin with and should be discounted years ago.

But, it's a step in the right direction! At least they are making changes and not remaining stagnant wich has been the problem with the Church for many, many years.

I don't get it though. Is it just pertaining to unbaptized children? The Church has always taught that adults who needed to repent a little before entering Heaven, went to Limbo too. Where do those poor souls hang out now??

I agree with this. There never was a "rule" for limbo. Limbo was a theory, not a church "law" so to speak.

Not sure if this was serious or if it was sarcastic. But I love the changing of rules...thank goodness we can! Imagine what america would be if we couldn't have addendums and such?
