skipvia commented on the word in limbo
Never mind about all those unbaptized children after all. Apparently limbo never actually existed...

Yes, but the good pontiff Rat-zinger also took time out of his busy schedule to reopen hell, even as he was abolishing limbo.

No, limbo never did exist, at least not biblically. Hey--did you get the memo about St. Christopher not being a saint?

It looks like you missed your window of opportunity, reesetee. It's back...

Purgatory is still going strong. Purgatory has always been where the action was anyway.

When I was in college, we had a Dante party in the campus center. The upstairs was all airy and ethereal in silvery-blue light and featured technopop. The downstairs had red light, death metal, and a pool table (and mailboxes, but that's not important right now). The staircase was purgatory. I forget if it had any music, but it did have a lot of folks standing around smoking and making out.
Which makes me think... Palooka's probably right.

If this party had been during my college days, we'd have been listening to psychedelic rock and no one would have had any clue what level they were on.

I was thinking the same thing, skipvia. Damn--er, darn--oh, hell, DAMN the luck. ;-)
Geez, c_b, that memo about St. Christopher is old. You should subscribe to the feed so the news gets to you more quickly. Anyway, I ignore that, because I need him in my car.
