No, there is nothing besides Heaven, Hell and that place of purification which is called Purgatory.

Personally, no, I don't.
Limbo is believed by some to be the state of spiritual being reserved for babies and young children who die without baptism.
It is believed that the souls of such children cannot enter Heaven since their original sin was not washed away -- but at the same time, it would be contrary to God's mercy to have them condemned to hell.
Thus, some believe, a different level of spiritual existence exists, where the souls of unbaptized children enjoy eternal happiness, even if it's not in the presence of God.
The Catholic Church never formally defined Limbo's existence. It never adopted it as a required doctrine of the Church -- but at the same time, it never declared the belief to be false either.
For Catholics, belief in Limbo has always been an "option" -- unlike doctrines such as Purgatory or Mary's Immaculate Conception, which are defined teachings of the Church.
Myself, I believe that God allows unbaptized babies and children, after death, to choose for Him or against Him, which makes a Limbo-like spiritual state unnecessary -- and in that situation, who would not choose to be with God?

The dance? Yes!
The place-biblically it was called Abraham's Bosom, the place faithful followers went before Christ came.
Now limbo is done away with...there is NO purgetory according to the Bible.

i do but i wish i didn't. to me limbo is a sad state of existence. it's where souls who are yearning to go to heaven to be with God, have to spend time in atonements for their sins. the stay in limbo can be interminable because the soul is eager for the next step---progression into heaven.

What I believe in could be answered in a more private manner; I don't like to tell by religious beliefs before so many people that may become offended.

No. Not theologically correct in any way. Bad theology that even the Roman Catholic Church has agreed should be put in the waste-can.

No, the Bible does not support this docterine. The Bible says there is Heaven and there is Hell...no inbetween. Those who accept Jesus Christ as their savior or those who died to early to have made that decision yet go to heaven. Those who reject Jesus Christ as their personal savior go to Hell. It's quite simple.
