Up to 50% of pregnancies end in spontaneous abortion (i.e., non medically induced) before the person is even aware that they are pregnant.
Another 10% occur between 9-12 weeks after conception.
For those who believe that the "soul" is created at conception, that is a lot of souls that never make it to life. And, are they different to "souls" that have died through medically induced abortion?
I am interested in any thoughts that you may have on this. If you have read any of my other posts, this is not any sort of a "trap" to try and prove something.
My interest is in your ideas as to whether these "souls" will go to Heaven or Hell, or (more interesting to me) will they get a second shot (ie, be actually, eventually born), or is it something else entirely?
I don't know, is a fine response. I suspect that it is not a subject that people give a lot of thought to, but ideas are always interesting to mull over.
