Okay, then what you are saying is that if God allows babies to be born into families then He must in turn approve of the belief system of that family.

Now lets apply your viewpoint logically.

If God allows a baby to be born into a family that has a religion that practices the sacrifice of babies, then God must approve of a religion that practices the sacrifice of babies, since he allowed a baby to be born into that particular family that practices that religion.

Just as I said before, you are saying that if God allows it (in this case He allowed the family involved in a religion of baby sacrifice to produce offspring), then God must not have a problem with a religion that practices baby sacrifice.

I of course disagree with your viewpoint. I don't think a religion is justified by the fact that members can have children.

That would apply to Christianity too, correct?

If our soul's entry into this world is under God's power alone, then the standard monotheistic model of God doesn't make him look too good, does it? Especially when he's sending souls into a baby killing religion.

The standard definition of God is full of contradictions. In fact, it makes him look like a nutjob. I happen to disagree with most Christian models of God. Your mileage may vary.
