Christianity says we are born into sin, because of adam and eve. so if a baby dies then it goes to hell because it's a sinner. This is called God's love.

As much as I disagree with the concept of sin, all I can say is in order to "sin" you have to have an awareness of right and wrong. Babies are completely self-centered and only know of their own needs, which are basic to all of us: warmth, food, comfort and contact. Right and wrong and the needs of others don't even enter their consciousness. They haven't the capacity at that age for such abstract concepts. So in answer to your somewhat silly question: No, it's not possible for babies to "sin."

No babies do not sin, because they don't know any better. once they reach an age of knowing right from wrong then that is when you "sin" babies are innocent, and have to be taught right from wrong.

I don't think that babies sin. From the day of conception babies are innocent. It is those of us who are more knowing that corrupt babies into our way of thinking. Good, bad or indifferent.

We're all born into sin. But if a baby , or young child up to about age 5 were to die, they would go to heaven anyway because they are too young to understand the meaning of accepting Christ as one's personal Savior. This is where many religions have it wrong which believe in infant baptism, whereas , like so many other hocus-pocus rituals they perform, it is useless for salvation. (see Ephesians 2:8-10) AFTER one is saved THEN they are baptised as a public confession of faith in Christ.

I have not met a toddler yet that did not already know how to do what was wrong. They are born with sin and know exactly how to do it.

We are all born sinners. It doesn't matter how old or young we are, we always sin.

babies can't sin because they do not know better.
they are not old enough to know wrong from right.
if they were to die they would go to heaven.

No - they can't sin because they haven't yet been brainwashed by any church.
