I wonder how Jack Chick would answer this one? ( I do recall one of his Crusader comics where newborn babies (up to what age not specified) get Raptured along with the BACs.)
Heh, I wonder what would happen to atheist mothers with innocent babies trapped in their uterus.
Thank you for that. I had not heard.
Current pope did away with the LIMBO?
Thank God…it was not so easy dancing under that stick.
Drat, I thoguht Skald had come back.
The OP is a religious spammer; I googled "LESSONS FROM GOD ; What happens to a Baby’s Soul after Abortion or Miscarriage " and found the OP spammed all over. Reported.
There’s a member here called kanicbird. You two would get along.
I don’t consider myself religious, but I believe I know this answer.
-
First and foremost God is in control, He knows and has made plans for this.
-
When a soul in a fetus’ body is going to be aborted God typically sends one of His servants, one with love in their heart for the woman and fetal child. That servent’s heart connects with that child and that person’s heart can’t help but to pray for that child. This is God praying through that servent. In a slightly different, but related reality, that child sees God coming and saying that it’s time to go as the body you are in is about to be destroyed, the child goes with God and the now soulless body is killed.
-
Occasionally, I believe rarely, that doesn’t happen, and the child suffers through the abortion process enters the realm of the dead which in the child’s reality is being dragged out of their loving home into a cold prison cell without any explanation. This child enters the cycle of eternal death known as reincarnation. Eventually this child will start asking why and crying out to God at some point, and God will answer and take this child home, and use this child’s experience to bring about a much greater good.
The above happens for any form of death, either the person dies and is reincarnated without God, or God takes the soul out of this cycle of eternal death. It matters not if the person is in the womb or not. Miscarriage, abortion, stillborn, infant death, child death, adult death, murder, taking your own life, being nukes from orbit. the process is the same.
I would also tend to agree with vortex magic’s explanation as just a different perspective from what I stated, though I do also believe it is possible for the ‘ghost’ fetus to detach from the mother and be disillusioned with people from the experience, maybe even after several abortion cycles detaching so much that when they are born into a new body they are autistic, as their soul has detached from humanity.
You keep using that word, I do not think it means what you think it means. [/im]
That’s a subject for another great debate 
But don’t forget that if one pays homage to the soul of their aborted fetus then all is good and square with the universe again.
You wonder why children grow up religiously extreme.
From Douay-Rheims; Book of Isaiah;
I used to work with a gal who said the same thing. UNbaptized babies go to Hell because they have not been baptized to remove the Original sin of MAN (adam and eve).
If one believes in Jesus, and a loving God, how can any person, who believes in any Diety, for that matter, say an INNOCENT can be doomed due to actions of others?
Jesus is innocent yet was condemned to death due to the actions of others. It was a decision reversed by the Father, so God does have a final say but that doesn’t mean a innocent person won’t have to suffer death because of the actions of another, just that eventually it will be reversed and a greater good will come of it.
I’ve banned vortex magic, who was just copy-and-pasting that post to internet forums. It appears on at least a few dozen sites. I hope that doesn’t put a damper on anybody’s fun, but this poster was not coming back to the Straight Dope anyway.
You might want to find out what Christian doctrine is before criticizing it. Just a thought.
I understand that, by suffer, I meant eternal damnation.
I have stated many times in my life to myself that the “greatest sufferers” in the world are CHILDREN.
One would think the safest place in the world for a developing fetus would be it’s Mother’s womb, yet for many, it is the most dangerous.
Who suffers more from famine, children, who suffers more from abuse, children, who suffers more from war, children.
You might want to understand that Christian doctrine isn’t one thing. And plenty of fire and brimstone sects are out there.
All Christianity is utter nonsense, of course. But some are weirder than others.
Huh? I was NOT criticizing it, how did you get that out of my post? I am a christian myself.
For religious condonement of infanticide, there’s also Psalm 137:8-9:
For simplistic, anachronistic, contextual sloppy biblical eisegesis see chronos.
