Limbo

The new pope has unwritten the first circle of Hell. Dante’s Limbo seemed like an alright to spend the afterlife, though on re-reading Canto 4 of the Inferno, I noticed that, like Mel Gibson, Dante favors ancient Romans over ancient Hebrews. That’s OK, it’s his book. I do however prefer the teaching we are all born in grace, rather than in sin, making Limbo theologically unnecessary.
