Here is another aspect of my "given religion" that just doesn't jive with me. Years ago, if you didn't baptize a baby and then that baby died, the baby couldn't go to heaven. They went to "limbo". Now, setting aside the fact that just using a word like limbo in serious religion is outlandish.....
Limbo wasn't heaven, and it wasn't hell. It was just limbo.
At some point, someone decided that limbo wasn't there anymore. Perhaps the Pope? How can you just change your mind and empty out Limbo on a whim? All of a sudden, one day, the Church decided....no more limbo! Where did the babies go? What happened to limbo? Who decides to just CHANGE religion?
