I R A Geek, babies go to hell, and so does the internet.

So, this whole fuss over the idea of Limbo: um, what?

Are we seriously spending this much time concerned about where the souls of babies go to if they haven’t been baptized? What happens if you decide that there ain’t no such thing as Limbo? Are all those babies who were originally in Limbo now going to Hell? Or do they get a free pass into Jesusland? Or do we just pretend that they never existed in the first place?

Note to the Vatican: the trick to a good lie is commitment. The moment you start to waffle, it’s over. That’s all I’m saying.

Speaking of a giant waste of time and energy: apparently
goatse.cx is up for auction, the minimum bid being $4000. Yes, now you can blow a small fortune on having a domain name that was made famous by a picture of a man stretching his sphincter wide enough to double as an elephant’s birth canal. Yeahthanksbutno.

Hey, look! It’s time for me to go home and play video games!

My Stepfather already told me I'm going to Hell, and since I've never been baptized, it looks like my spot in Hell is guaranteed!
Mmmm... Tasty unbaptized babies...
DOWN WITH LIMBO!

I think that's so nice of your stepfather to take care of your afterlife requirements for you! Regretably, I HAVE been baptized, so I'm not entirely sure what's happening to me when I die, as I'm what's considered one hell of a backslider. Maybe, they'll have a waiting room for 'cases pending', complete with uncomfortable chairs and uninteresting reading material.

Talking about the afterlife with my Stepdad was very odd... I said "My only hope in death is to be at peace with myself" and he told me I'd go to Hell. It caught me off guard.
But the funny part is my Stepdad has been "condemned" for being a "cancer" to the church! OUCH! Anyway, thanks for posting that after-life changing article!

I'm stuck in purgatory, but I think it will just be a party with all the other athiests.

Aw, hell, no! You're the Jesus of Curryology! You get to create your OWN afterlife!

It better not be lame, that's all I'm saying...

No problem, man. There will be every comic and video game at your finger-tips.
