Limbo is the place where unbaptised children are said to go, and has been part of Catholic belief since the 13th century. Children who die without baptism go into limbo, where they do not 'enjoy God' but they do not suffer. Because of original sin, they do not deserve paradise, but because of the tenderness towards children, they don't deserve Hell or Purgatory. (the concept of Catholic tenderness towards children is another discussion).<BR/><BR/>So in one deft stroke of the pen, the Vatican has scratched Limbo. Where have all those souls ended up? Benedict said, in an interview 20 years before he was ordained, 'Limbo has never been a defined truth of faith. I would drop something that has always been only a theological hypothesis.' That would be a tautology, unless he can prove that there is a theological definite. Prove it with science.Siobhan + Matt = Shmatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14668963126752262632noreply@blogger.com
