Is it possible? Are there eight year old children in hell right now? Here's a scripture to ponder:
Jehoiachin was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned three months and ten days in Jerusalem: and he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord.
—2 Chronicles 36:9
What say ye, Christians..

An eight year old and hell should not even be used in the same sentence, nightflight.

Have you ever loved a child?
If so, why don't you say something good about their beauty and innocence when you come up with new threads topics?

When we become old enough to know right from wrong, we are therefore accountable for our actions. Obviously its hard to fathom an 8-yr old being so 'evil', but who knows?

Oh, and Mormons actually baptize at age 8.

Of course not . . . our brain does not even have the FULL psychological capacity for reason and control until after age 25. Developmental psychology should be a mandatory subject for all Americans in all our schools. Unfortunately . . . the glorification of ignorance and rejection of the "wisdom of man" stands as a major stumbling block to ANY real understanding of ourselves . . . let alone our God.

But did it register? The replies I got were mainly gasps that such a thing as an eight year old in hell could even be conceived.

Thank you for your response. Anyone else? Christians? I would really like to hear from conservative, evangelical Christians.
