I did not mean to minimize such a loss, but only to point out that there are worse things than a young child leaving us and going to heaven. Death of loved ones is tough. I'm sure you think about your lost child often. Sherrie wrote: > Bill's words do speak healing to my soul. Very, > very much so. It might be wise to think about > comments before you state them.

I like Bill very much and was interested in discussing this subject with him. There are many Christians who do not believe that the young children go to hell upon death, and I am one of them. Never had I met anyone before that uses a theology of being born in Christ to argue such. Sherrie wrote: > You say near the end of your post that you promise > to discuss with Bill nicely.
