Heck is where people who were somewhat bad go, but not so bad as to get the torment of going to Hell.

The Road to Heck is paved with fleeting thoughts of good deeds.

Or as Catholics call it, limbo.

No. Its what Catholics call "Purgatory". Temporary hell. Thats where "somewhat bad" folks go...while the really bad go to permanent Hell.

Limbo is for babies who croaked before they got baptized. And some say grown ups who were "virtuous but Pagan" end up in limbo too.

Being "somewhat bad" doesn't look so bad.

I always understood purgatory to be a place for people who have sinned significantly, but not in a necessarily 'pure evil' way, to repent for their sins before they were bumped up to heaven status.

I didn't think it was comparable to hell either, more like something in between heaven & hell.

I played Earthworm Jim where there is a level that takes place in a world called Heck, where they play elevator music and you get attacked by insurance salesman.
