THE HOPE OF SALVATION FOR INFANTS
WHO DIE WITHOUT BEING BAPTISED
WHO DIE WITHOUT BEING BAPTISED
Err, It's a bit of a long read as you would expect from The Vatican.
...The conclusion of this study is that there are theological and liturgical reasons to hope that infants who die without baptism may be saved and brought into eternal happiness, even if there is not an explicit teaching on this question found in Revelation...
...Rather, there are reasons to hope that God will save these infants precisely because it was not possible to do for them that what would have been most desirable— to baptize them in the faith of the Church and incorporate them visibly into the Body of Christ...
...It must be clearly acknowledged that the Church does not have sure knowledge about the salvation of unbaptised infants who die...
Hope? You can not be fucking serious!
One of the greatest causes of anguish in Catholic life and the church is unable to pronounce on it? Why can't the pope fit his holy Ex Catheter and ask God for some clarification?
Buy the way, if humans are given souls at the point of conception and all aborted foetuses go directly to heaven then heaven must be littered with trillions of Petri dishes, you know, given that 2/3 pregnancies self abort in the first week. Or does god have a large pond for them, it's all sooo confusing.
Catholicism; what's not to laugh at?
It's amazing 'science' always seems to 'find' whatever it is funded for, and never the oppsite. Drich.
