Reply #17: I was once told by an incredible stuffed shirt of a priest

[Warpy]

that a Catholic woman should gladly give her life in childbirth because the baby might be a MALE.

I was 10. I went home and announced to my parents that I was an atheist and that was the end of Catholic school for me.

I know Catholics think unbaptized people, including aborted fetuses, go to a place outside heaven called Limbo and never see god, something that makes it just like their other places of hell and purgatory.

This seems unnecessarily cruel and silly, especially for all those unbaptized people all over the world who live lives more according to Christ's laws than they do.

In any case, that's the reasoning, and I rarely look back to consider it.
