How Low Can You Go?

Headline: Theologians to ask Pope to suspend limbo - reports

VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - Limbo -- the place where the Catholic Church teaches that babies go if they die before being baptised -- may have its days numbered.

So there's a commission that decides this? And the final answer is in limbo as well as the babies? Bizarre. This must be some half-baked idea concocted to force parents to baptize their infants for fear of sending them to the Big Luau in the sky.

I personally never liked the limbo. I could never make it very far down without falling into some warped, uncomfortable position. But you'd think babies would be good at it. Unless being in limbo kind of has you floating around in slow motion like you're in space. They must anchor themselves to the bar or something with that gold string Shirley McClain always talks about.

I hope they make a decision soon - the suspense is killing me.
