Well, being babies are not unclean this discussion is unwarranted in matters of actual scripture and God's grace. I think people that believe babies go to Hell are already made up in their own minds. And that has not a thing to do with God.

I think you'd have to show in HIS WORD where God expressly states babies go to Hell. Can you do that ?

P/S Is the Mojave memorial cross still there? I know that the public land was deeded to a veterans group years ago.

Good for them! The ACLU should be beat down each and every time they rally against Christian's religious freedom. Which is often. They and as mentioned, the FFRF, started by an apostate ex-pastor who's mission now is to wipe Christianity out of America, are an abomination. FFRF got the ACLU on board to attack the Mojave memorial cross as offensive! Now imagine a nation where the ideas of FFRF and ACLU rule the country. (Barf bag anyone?)

We are. That doesn't mean we're perfect. It means when we make mistakes we have an advocate for us who is between us and the Father in Heaven; Jesus. 1 John 3:9"No one who is born of God practices sin, because His seed abides in him; and he cannot sin, because he is born of God."

There is a lot to be said for the fact that in Judaism there is no fire and brimstone afterlife awaiting the unrepentant. Separation from God for all eternity awaits those who do not reconnect with God through Jesus Christ. Hell's fire and brimstone is said to be the concoction of the RCC. And they demonstrated it awaited the damned when the church burned people alive at the stake. Saying as excuse, that burned away the sins they'd otherwise have to suffer when damned to the firey pit.

God help any Christian who accepts that God gave them a mind and then forbids them to use it.

I know what you're saying about human's being angels. We're all here to help one another as messengers of God's love. Welcome to the forum.

What's that have to do with the question of babies going to Heaven?

That was Darwin's dilemma. The Cambrian explosion.

Interesting question. If the people left behind were deplorable I'd think they would resort to deplorable acts. Would that make them infertile? That they are under the wrath? Does the Bible have anything to say about that? I've never looked.

I am not here to challenge your personal relationship with God. God's holy spirit bestowed the gift of tongues at Pentecost so that all peoples could speak and share the good news of salvation. God communicates to everyone in the framework of his plan. The Bible tells us God is love. And those who do not have love do not know God. Welcome to the forum.

Of all the worlds religions Christianity is one of the younger ones. I don't think God condemns people for asking questions while Christian. There are many curiosities as to what we're asked to believe. And there are many mistakes in thinking the Bible is not a tome of idioms, allegories, parables, metaphor, in order to lead us to see deeper into the way and the ways of God. Like asking, why due to rampant sin did God decide to drown the world? Including babies and pregnant women? Why didn't God just kill Satan first? It's a mystery. But it is also a question that you're worthy of asking in my view. Welcome. I hope you last here.

Carbon 14 isn't the only method of dating. Nor is it today easily dismissed as a method. It would be very odd to argue the earth is not more than 10,000 years of age given all the samples and artifacts we have of strata and cultures spanning tens of thousands of years. Also, what would it say if true concerning the fossilized remains of early humans fossils with regard to the story of the garden of Eden?

It's a profound message at this point isn't it?
