This is the problem with organized religion

The Roman Catholic Church is considering closing down limbo.

See, all Christians are born with original sin (damn that Eve), and as such only baptism can make you worthy of heaven (but, by no mean guaranteed entry). So, technically babies who die before being baptized would go to hell, which seems harsh. So, we have limbo, which is kind of this middle ground. Not nice like heaven, but no hot pokers in your eyes like Hell. Still, seems kind of unfair that babies – through no fault of their own, arfe denied heaven.


Solution? Close limbo (or, at least re-market the idea). But, there’s the problem. If Limbo is a creation of God, as it must be, then how can man change it? And, if it’s not a creation of god (or, man misinterpreted the intent of limbo), then how can you be sure that they aren’t wrong about other things, like Gay priests.
