Apparently the PanzerCardinal of the Iron Cross has decided to dispense with the centuries old concept of limbo to compete more effectively with Islam. I love religion and religious dogma, it's the dogma and the casual reactionary changing of it that makes it all the more plausible....

The Pope scraps limbo

THE Pope will later this week formally abolish the concept of limbo.

All the evidence suggests that Benedict XVI never believed in the idea anyway.

But in the fertile evangelisation zones of Africa and Asia, the Pope - an acknowledged authority on all things Islamic - is only too aware that Muslims believe the souls of stillborn babies go straight to heaven.

Now, he will say, Catholic babies do too.

I wonder if this does away with baptism?

EDIT: And it seems to call into question original sin as well.

I guess what  he means by that is there is still original sin just not enough to have to stay in purgatory, in other words, purgatory is still suppsoed to be there.

The Irish Independent is an Irish BROADSHEET, not some muckrag like The Sun or The Star in the UK. It would be equivalent to The Guardian or The Times.

Theological hypothesis? Like god and heaven and hell. Is he going to abolish those next?
