But that does not tell me why the Catholics then need the Limbo. We are to be judged for that which we have done. The unbaptized infants had done nothing to be judged for, nor anything to repent for. Do you not think that God in his infinite love for humanity can not find room for Grace for unbaptized infants if he can save repentant murderers? Better yet, why speculate and confuse, as if we really know the essence of God's salvation?!

He saves repentant murderes here, on earth, if they repent. Infants do not have that opportunity nor do they need to repent - yet they are born with sin, the sin of Adam. Since death is the result of sin, if they were without sin, they would have never died in the first place.

Perhaps He can find room in heaven for unbaptised infants - perhaps He cannot. Do you believe that God allows those who have sin on their souls into heaven? We do not.

We believe there may be some middle place we call Limbo because while the unbaptised infants are not guilty of actual sin, they do have the sin of Adam on their soul. The *only* way to remove that particular sin, so far as has been revealed, is through Baptism that Christ commanded we all must have or no one gets into heaven - he did not leave a proviso for infants.
