This question is directed to those who believe in a literal Hell. A Hell that consists of damnation, eternal torture and other unpleasant situations.
While I do not share this particularly belief, I was wondering how someone who believed this could bring a child into the world. Because no matter how well you perform as a parent, your child has the right to choose his belief system. If there is even a small chance he will choose the wrong belief system then you as his parent bears the responsibility of creating a human being that will spend his eternal afterlife in a horrible place. I don't think I could live with this fact.
For example, how does a Christian fundamentalist whose child chooses not to accept Christ as their Savior and then dies of a drug overdose live with the fact their child, their creation, will spent an eternity in hell?
I am just curious.
