A problem with infant damnation[edit]

Hell will be swarming with very unhappy infants, who have to be looked after, and the devils signed up in order to punish malefactors not be nursemaids. 109.146.201.8 (talk) 09:19, 23 April 2018 (UTC)

Did the devils sign up? I'm not sure if it's entirely clear where they're all coming from. Did they all rebel against God? —Kazitor, pending 10:00, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
Some would have chosen to go to hell - and something else to annoy the 'do this or you will be damned' brigade.
A scene in Satan's office - assorted devil's unions (where the devil #is# in the detail) stating that unless something is done they will advise their members to 'say the magic words' and become God-botherers. 109.146.201.8 (talk) 12:13, 23 April 2018 (UTC)

Pascal's wager[edit]

So how does Pascal's wager 'work' with regard to infant damnation? Anna Livia (talk) 14:36, 12 October 2018 (UTC)

Dead link -- source 10[edit]

Heyo, saw that source 10 was labelled dead link, it 404s. Found an archive of the link. Replacing now, revert if necessary :) Moria (talk) 00:27, 3 March 2021 (UTC)

Technically[edit]

We are all 'born of water' (the ammoniacal fluid). Anna Livia (talk) 10:10, 3 March 2021 (UTC)

Another argument against[edit]

All these infants get sent to hell.

The Devilish Administration decide that they will set things up so the children can grow up into fully trained forces of Hell, who will go to Earth and 'convert the locals' - so God has fewer recruits (as well as all the unbaptized), and come the Final Battles things do not go Heaven's way.
