I never said I don't believe in Limbo.  What I said was:
"I was taught Limbo was only used before the resurrection and ascension and is now closed."

Oh, for crying out loud, I clearly meant that you do not believe in a Limbo that continues to exist today, a place where unbaptized infants go.

So, now that we've dispensed with the word games, what do you believe happens to unbaptized infants?  If you reject Limbo, you have to say that they either end up in Heaven or in Hell.  That's not acceptable to the vast majority of Catholic theologians for the reasons cited in that snipped from Catholic Encyclopedia.

"Infant limbo"?  Is that another kind of Limbo?

This is where, I believe, many traditional Catholics get into trouble.  It doesn't matter what we believe as much as what is.
:facepalm: Apparently you didn't read what you yourself posted above.

Have a good day epiphany.

Nope. It appears word games still abound.

"That, too"?
You are absolutely mistaken in your logic.

Abortion is wrong because it violates the fifth commandment and has nothing to do with baptism.
2V is not mistaken in her logic. Yes, the mother will be guilty of sinning against the 5th commandment, likely at least a few other commandments as well, but she still has the chance to repent before she dies and be saved. The focus is always on the child because the child being killed before being born has no hope for salvation at all, no chance whatsoever.
