A few days ago, I read that the Pope is currently considering a proposal to abolish the state of “limbus infantium”. His conclusion is due to be published on Friday. A quick poll of my friends (including one who is an RE teacher) elicited nothing more than blank looks, so I was pleased to find discussion of the issue in the blogosphere, although it is not as widespread as I thought it might have been. Perhaps it has been overshadowed by events in North Korea and other religious discussions concerning veils. Or perhaps the concept is not one which people spend time worrying about.

It's also been in the news, on and off, since Autumn 2005 I discovered when trying to research the concept further.
Having been raised in a Church of England church, Limbo is not a concept I am terribly familiar with. I certainly came across the ideals of catholicism during GCSE RE but that was 8 years ago and I am a little rusty about these matters.
I think that I agree with you that it makes sense from a theological point of view (especially as Jesus said that all the little children would be safe in heaven with him, or words to that effect) but I'm not entirely sure what you mean...
