If limbo is not P.C. anymore, then how long will the RCC stick with purgatory?

I just love these "updates"!

Purgatory has been defined dogmatically after being challenged by the Protestant Reformation. It's not going anywhere. It has a Scriptural basis and strong basis in Tradition. Limbo had neither and arose as an incomplete response to a doctrine that has been condemned, namely, that unbaptized infants go to hell. So Purgatory and Limbo are like apples and oranges theologically.

I apologize for doubleposting no. 54/56.

You should check out the Protestants then. They updated the faith already many centuries ago.
