Actually, St. Augustine thought that unbaptized infants went to Hell. He said that it was probably a portion of Hell that was without pain, but also devoid of the Beatific Vision, which is called Limbo. More recently, Catholics have been divided on the issue.

BArry, are you just like algore???
The last time I saw your profile, you claimed to be a lead systems analyst for Eastern Airlines, NOW you are a """"family planner"""" in Dallas??

What is that?

What is the Dallas Womens Clinic and what is a Senior Family Planning Specialist, and how hows one go from a "lead" systems analyst to a "senior" family planner?

How many families have you "planned"??

questions we all want to know

"Do people really believe that an aborted fetus soul is sent to Hell?"
I have personally on many occassions and at length answered this question for you. You don't personally give a hoot. So you don't seriously consider the information that people provide on the issue. Why? As you say it is merely a disingenuous provocation and an obvious one.

One more time. The condition of another person's soul is not under my jurisdiction. Mine and mine alone is. I am responsible for living a life in consideration and care of God's creations. In that role I am obligated to stand for justice and against injustice. When I fail to do so, it is my soul I am concerned for...not the soul of a fetus (over which I have no control) or the abortion doctor, or you. My religion states that the soul enters the human fetus at the end of the first trimester.

The bottom line here is that this question has been answered by people knowlegeable of the teachings of their religion many, many, many times. Your contention about what happens to the soul of a fetus is not believed by you. It is obnoxious and childish for you to keep posing our position for us, when none of us has bought into it and it is something that even you do not have the slightest belief in.

It actually reinforces my belief that you do not have a "real" position on this at all.
