Umm, the baptism of water and the Holy Spirit is supposed to be the way that we address original sin.

I know that. :) My point is that you have said that God does not kill "innocent children". And, I "think" (correct me if I'm wrong) you have also recently said that it is not inconceivable to you that God kills in other cases. Putting the two together, it appears you have created a special class of people impervious to God's hand on this matter. They are children between the ages of baptism and the first mortal sin. Is this your position?

I try to differentiate between the killing of the body and the immolation of the soul to hellfire forever.

We have been instructed to baptize all; therefore we baptize infants. If an infant dies before baptism, then that child is in Christ’s hands. We trust that He does not have butterfingers.
