that is harsh!!!!!! How can someone even believe that??  It does not say 
anywhere in the Bible that you must be christened to go to heaven.  We as 
Baptists do not "christen" our children, rather we "dedicate" them to God. 
We promise to bring them up knowing God and the Church community promises to 
help us.  Then when they get to an age when they understand they are 
encouraged to make their own decision and be baptised.  All of our children 
have professed a faith in God, the boys are both baptised but Jenny hasn't 
taken that step yet.  Jenny is struggling with her faith at the moment but 
if anything were to happen to her (God forbid!!) I have complete faith that 
she would go to heaven!!  When we dedicated Louise we promised to look after 
her for the time she was given by God.
I too believe that our girls are dancing angels in heaven together Robyn, as 
they were innocents and precious to God.
