Of course he is. Throughout history, far more children died than survived. And as there was no Christianity for most of human history, those are obviously all in hell.

I like how this also implies those people's kids all end up in hell...

Sorry, original sin means if you die before you’re old enough to understand religion you go straight to hell. I don’t make the rules.

(Neither do Christians, but they think they do.)

Never fear! Mormons baptize the dead in case they died without the opportunity to be baptized during their lifetime. I love loopholes lol

Imagine being dragged, kicking and screaming, into Mormon heaven.

lol...i'm just glad i hadn't yet heard of their practice called soaking back then

Those kids have been through enough. No need to sentence them to an eternity with the clergy.

I like how this also implies that Satan exists as anything other than man's ego.
