Theologians to ask Pope to suspend limbo?

Limbo — the place where the Catholic Church teaches that babies go if they die before being baptized — may have its days numbered.

According to Italian media reports on Tuesday, an international theological commission will advise Pope Benedict to eliminate the teaching about limbo from the Catholic catechism.

In his Divine Comedy, Dante passes limbo on his way into hell and writes: “Great grief seized on my own heart when this I heard, because some people of much worthiness I knew, who in limbo were suspended.”
