Now that was easy to understand:') So what's your (scripturally backed up, of course) opinion on this?

What would you have me say? Life on this planet because of the fall of Adam and Eve are by default subject to the 'prince of the Air'. By this measure, they would by default go to hell unless they were raised to Serve God and took that direction. IF that were the case it would be man's doing, not God's. God didn't Make Satan the default master of men, Man did. I can go a dozen different directions through speculation; but, I'm satisfied with none of them. The thought occurs that if babies go to hell because of inherited sin or curses, one must also keep in mind that Children of TRUE Christians would not be subject to such unless they were concieved in sin. In order for sin to be passed on, the sin would need first be present in the parents. Comfortable conjecture; but, conjecture none the less.

See why I don't like conjecture? Look at the RCC. They dogmatize this stuff. That's how they got all that junk about Mary. I'll leave this question in God's hands and stick with what we can know for sure. God is both Just and merciful and I'm sure would not let us down on such a matter. His ways are higher than ours. If it were up to all of us, we'd all be dead and in hell cause most people are selfish and few forgiving.
