well indeed, even if it was “believed” for 1000 year or 5 thousand years, it is still not a dogma…and i don’t think it will ever be. We’ll always have questions with no answers, and i don’t think it must be our concern what will God do to anyone after death, we can only speculate…a speculation might take hundreds of years…

I agree. Anyone who is saying that it is an infallible dogma, is completely either reading the Papal Bulls out of context, or is believeing something incorrect.

I have never been taught that such is an infallible dogma, and I have check a variaty of official Catholic websites and they all agree.
 
Ah, a new tactic- distortion. The Church still teaches the unbaptised cannot go to Heaven except under the most extraordinary of circumstances.This is an article of faith. Never changed that teaching still hasn’t. And that is not what is under discussion is it? What is under discussion is Limbo. Limbo is not an article of faith. Nice try though.
your sarcasm isn’t really helping…
 
The church in the news about limbo.

Any comments? How can the church have change?

Change What? LIMBUS INFANTIUM
The question therefore arises as to what, in the absence of a clear positive revelation on the subject, we ought in conformity with Catholic principles to believe regarding the eternal lot of such persons. Now it may confidently be said that, as the result of centuries of speculation on the subject, we ought to believe that these souls enjoy and will eternally enjoy a state of perfect natural happiness; and this is what Catholics usually mean when they speak of the limbus infantium, the “children’s limbo.”

Ah. thank you so much. And where is *your *effort? Do you have an opinion on the subject, or just a criticism of me?
A criticism of you, or a criticism of the way you’re speaking? Make sure you separate those two - it sounds like you haven’t.

If I post an opinion, I can then say your posts have an unpleasant tone, but if I don’t, I can’t? :confused:

More people see the truth of the Catholic faith by seeing Catholics who live it in sincerity, gentleness and love than are argued into it by sarcastic comments.

I see. Perhaps you could start a different thread on my attitude as your current opinions are way off topic and that is where your interest apparently lies. Why I am not sure as I find most of my own attitudes rather boring. Nevertheless, you are off topic and perhaps you would care to offer something on the original OP in an attitude you prefer to mine or one you think is more constructive? For I am not sure that merely passing the time by criticising me adds much to the original subject. Since you have stated that you know better how to communicate, please do so. 😃
